Korea debates Lee's political standards amid golf, trips
Korean outlets are discussing President Lee Jae Myung amid a familiar cycle of disputes over presidential golf and the presidential plane, with the Korea Times reporting that his overseas trips have "drawn attention to Korea's shifting political standards." An explainer from the same outlet traces golf's "enduring political trap" from Kim Young-sam to Lee, after an opposition lawmaker's allegation against first lady Kim Hea Kyung prompted a denial from LPGA star Lydia Ko and a rebuttal from Cheong Wa Dae. Yonhap reports Lee's approval rating rose to 36.9 percent on summit achievements and economic policies, and that he visited a southeastern province to inspect a pilot basic income scheme.
