Guilty verdict upheld for DP presidential candidate's wife

Kim Hye-kyung, the wife of Lee Jae-myung, the presidential candidate of the Democratic Party, exits the High Court in Suwon, south of Seoul, on May 12, 2025, after the court upheld a lower court's ruling of a 1.5 million-won (US$1,067) fine for illegal use of a Gyeonggi provincial government credit card in August 2021, during Lee's term as Gyeonggi governor, to support her husband's intraparty campaign to become the DP presidential runner.
