Isi artikel
The election for mayor of Seoul on October 26th produced an upset. The self-styled "citizens' candidate", Park Won-soon, an anti-establishment independent, trounced the articulate and glamorous legislator representing the country's ruling conservative party. Mr Park is a human-rights lawyer who came of age opposing South Korea's military dictatorship. Later he became known for promoting a chain of thrift shops for the poor. Two months ago he was the rank outsider in the mayoral race. In the event, he handily beat his opponent with 53% of the votes to Na Kyung-won's 46%. The stakes were high. Nearly half of South Korea's population lives in or around Seoul, and the mayoral race is by far the most important non-national election. The mayor is often considered future presidential material.
