Boundary Stones
Koreagate: Tongsun Park’s Cash Bribes and Congressional Corruption
Special | 4m 42s
In the 1960 and ‘70s, South Korean agent gave nearly $1 Million to Congress — and got away with it.
Tongsun Park operated one of the most exclusive Washington social clubs of the 1960s and 70s, rubbing shoulders with generals, members of Congress, even US presidents. All the while, he was on the payroll of a Korean spy agency, giving millions of dollars in gifts to elected officials. Park was charged with multiple felonies, the House opened up a massive investigation and then... nothing.
