　　Overseas Network, December 26th Former South Korean President Park Geun-hye received an amnesty and will be released from prison on December 31. Korean media took stock of the three major benefits of Park Geun-hye: he could be released from prison 17 years earlier, and a fine of up to 15 billion won (approximately 80.53 million yuan) was exempted. Although there is still a case file, the bad influence brought about by the case file will be eliminated.

According to a report from South Korea’s YTN television station on the 25th, Park Geun-hye is 70 years old and has been sentenced to a total of 22 years in prison for the “trustworthy” case. He is expected to be released at the age of 87. Because he was pardoned by South Korean President Moon Jae-in, he was able to be released 17 years early.

In January of this year, the South Korean court imposed a fine of 18 billion won on Park Geun-hye, of which 3 billion won has been repaid through the forced auction of Park Geun-hye’s real estate, and the remaining 15 billion won will not have to be paid after receiving an amnesty.

However, amnesty is not a panacea. Park Geun-hye’s payment of up to 3.5 billion won (approximately 18.8 million yuan) is not included in the exemption. Fortunately, this sum of money has been paid in full.

Park Geun-hye was detained in March 2017 for being involved in the case of “confidential interfering in politics” and has been in custody for nearly 4 years and 9 months. He is the former South Korean president who has been in jail for the longest time. Her health has deteriorated recently. In addition to shoulder and lumbar diseases, her teeth have also deteriorated to the point where she cannot chew food. She can only eat porridge or fried noodles. Due to her uneasy mental state, she has also been treated in the Department of Mental Health Medicine. (Overseas Network Liu Qiang)
