Ask what Korea is talking about.

An appeals court on Friday acquitted Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon of political funding charges linked to opinion polls conducted ahead of his 2021 election, overturning a local court conviction that had threatened his tenure. The Seoul High Court ruled that the allegations did not constitute a violation of the Political Funds Act. The main opposition People Power Party welcomed the decision, while a special counsel team said it will appeal the ruling. The acquittal is seen as placing Oh on a path to a potential presidential run, easing a threat that had overshadowed his fifth term.
