Roh Your Own
New Light on Old Presidents 
One former Korean President is pursuing Carter-ization, demonstrably simple living joined with good works, while a murder has called attention to a dead former President’s political afterlife.
The New York Times reports that Roh Moo-hyun’s just plain folksiness is wowing em back in his hometown, and he’s remaining visible elsewhere through his web site.
Former strongman Park Chung-hee 
[took power in a coup, killed in office by head of KCIA] is back in the news after a murder at his former home, 
preserved as a monument to his humble roots.
And, um, service to Korea’s former Japanese overlords.
