Seoul Mayor Park Won-soon, 64, one of South Korea’s most powerful elected officials and the first Seoul mayor to be elected to a third term, was found dead less than 24 hours after his daughter reported him missing when he failed to return home.
According to Yonhap News, Park’s daughter filed a police report on Thursday evening local time, several hours after she received a mysterious message from him that sounded as if he was giving a will. Earlier in the day, the mayor had cleared his schedule because of “inevitable circumstances,” officials told the government-funded news agency.
