SEOUL (March 6): A rising star in South Korea's ruling party quit his post on Tuesday, just hours after an aide accused him of repeated sexual assault, as the snowballing #MeToo movement rattled the country's political establishment.
The woman accused An Hee-jung, Governor of South Chungcheong province and a leading hopeful in last year's presidential election, in a television interview on Monday evening.
Police said they were investigating the allegations against An, a member of President Moon Jae-in's Democratic Party.
