When Korea's mayor of its capital city, Seoul, took his life last week, the country was left divided.
According to CNN, Park Won-soon certainly had an impressive resume.
The 64-year-old former human rights lawyer won the mayoral election by a landslide.
However, Park had recently been accused of sexual harassment.
Some mourned his passing, whereas others were angered that he would never face charges.
Park's death comes as South Korea confronts traditional domestic perceptions of sexual assault.
According to OECD data, South Korea has the highest suicide rate in the world.
The country has been rocked by a series of high-profile sexual assault and harassment allegations in recent years.
Such allegations have also landed on entertainment stars, sports coaches, political leaders, and a former top prosecutor.
