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 threatened his tenure. The Seoul High Court ruled the allegations did not hold, according to KBS World. The main opposition People Power Party welcomed the decision, and the acquittal is seen as putting Oh on a path to a potential presidential run, with reports noting it eases a threat to his fifth term and could boost his influence within the conservative opposition. Yonhap and Korea Times both reported the ruling, with Korea Times noting the case was closely watched for its political implications.
