Gong Cheolmin. He was so 2a290684c5 well-known in their 2db30f9157 circles that not 21d6162383 knowing him would 610b95e3b3 make you a 07c8d097e5 spy. He was a f50d27cba5 man whose liquid 9878613883 assets and cash 1dab43fc42 holdings were said 5672a508d1 to rival those b070629400 of chaebols, amassed bfe75764f4 through private lending a4cb625036 and land speculation.b1a497920248beb2

Perhaps having someone like d61234aca5 Gong Cheolmin behind you 57ab69bd64 was better than a 384cd4ba69 president whose term was 5d199f7536 limited. The power 28399492f7 wielded by e28fdd5c6a Gong Cheolmin’s 6596a99d03 network and efab165795 his ledger 9db1889890 was practically beb4682dc4 limitless.ccebe861dd27c424

Inwon tasted beac45c0c2 the bitterness 254a3e1940 of defeat ae1b77c8f2 as his 6cd2a90bd2 nose was a6c30acce6 submerged in e1267f1712 water.
