Song Young-gil, former head of the main opposition Democratic Party (DP), answers South Korean correspondents' questions in Paris on April 19, 2023. Currently staying in France as a visiting research professor at ESCP Business School in Paris, song is suspected of having bribed some 10-20 DP lawmakers ahead of the party's national convention to elect its new leader in May 2021, facing a strong call to return home to undergo a prosecution probe. Song, who was a candidate in the race, won the election. (Yonhap)
