The #MeToo movement claimed its biggest scalp in South Korea following the resignation of a prominent progressive politician.
A day after he was accused of rape by his secretary, Ahn Hee-jung, governor of South Chungcheong province and one-time presidential hopeful, admitted wrongdoing (paywall) and announced his resignation in a Facebook post today (March 6). Ahn initially said the sexual encounters were consensual, but has since walked back those claims and apologized to the victim, Kim Ji-eun.
