Imagine a reporter at a White House press conference asking Joe Biden, “Will you comment on the conspiracy theories about you being a puppet who’s controlled by Satanists?” Imagine Biden responding, “Yes, that’s true. I’m deeply sorry and I hope the American people can forgive me.” That’s basically what happened in South Korea in late October 2016.
As most of the world’s attention was focused on Trump vs. Clinton, an anonymous South Korean summarized the unfolding horror show:
Naturally, South Korea exploded in protest, and over a million people took to the streets to demand President Park’s resignation. Over the next several months, she proceeded to be impeached, removed from office and sentenced to decades in prison.
The entire affair was barely covered in Western media, then swiftly memory-holed. A closer examination of what actually happened will explain why. Officially, Park was convicted for typical political corruption, like bribery and allowing unauthorized access to classified information, but the story goes much deeper than that. The Vital Redpill channel on YouTube put together a great video that breaks it all down.
President Park Guen-hye is the daughter of Park Chung-hee, the third president of South Korea, who seized power in a military coup in the early 1960s. In 1974, an assassination attempt against the president claimed the life of his wife, and Guen-hye assumed the duties of first lady. A short time later, she was approached by the cult leader Choi Tae-min, who became her mentor after manipulating her in her grievous state. Choi became known as the “Korean Rasputin” and convinced Guen-hye that her late mother communicated with him in his dreams. His daughter, Choi Soon-sil, became best friends with Guen-hye, and acted as her spiritual advisor after her father’s death.
In hindsight, of course, terms like “mentor” and “spiritual advisor” seem pretty loose. “Handler” is more accurate, and the Choi family used their spiritual influence to illegally enrich and empower themselves. Park Chung-hee was eventually assassinated in 1979 by his intelligence chief, who cited the Choi family’s influence as one of his motives for doing so. According to US diplomatic cables obtained by WikiLeaks, that fear was well founded.
When Choi Tae-min died in 1994, Choi Soon-sil likely became the new leader of the cult, and allegedly formed a splinter cult with seven other female Korean billionaires. These ‘8 Goddesses’ allegedly created a shadow network of control across various elements of Korean society. In Choi’s case, her influence over South Korea’s first female president may have had deadly consequences. Barely a year into Park’s presidency, almost 300 children were killed when the Sewol ferry capsized and sank.
The circumstances surrounding the tragedy are very suspect. To make a long story short, nobody should have died that day. There was plenty of time to rescue everyone on board, but nothing was done. The children were allegedly told to remain in their rooms, while Park herself disappeared for seven hours as it happened. The Sewol’s captain abandoned the ferry and survived, and the vice-principal of the children’s school committed suicide. The billionaire owner of the ferry went missing, and was found dead a few months later. The whole thing stinks, and the oddities did not go unnoticed.
If there’s any truth to those suspicions, such an unabashed operation could have only been fueled by immense hubris. It was ultimately that hubris which finally brought an end to Choi’s treachery.
First, Choi had initiated a romantic relationship with a much younger man, a fashion designer whose brand was sported by the president in return. One day, she felt that her puppy had been mistreated by being left inside for a couple hours while the fashion designer was out playing golf. Apparently, she went ballistic. Whatever she said and/or did was so extreme that the man started plotting against her, and began digging up dirt on her.
At the same time, Choi’s daughter was attending a prestigious university, where she barely attended class and put almost no effort into her work, but still received straight A’s. At one point, a professor threatened to fail her, but he conveniently fled to the US a few days later. After that, she was actually expelled, but the expulsion was quickly and successfully appealed. Enraged, her fellow students, and their parents, began a mass protest which forced the dean of the school to resign. Choi and her daughter then flew to Germany to wait for the situation to die down.
It was at that moment the young fashion designer came into possession of a tablet that contained smoking gun evidence of Choi’s influence over the president, and he made that information public. There was enough of a free press in South Korea that the story spread like wildfire. With her handler out of the country and unable to command her what to say, Park spilled the beans at a press conference a few days later. She confirmed the information in the leak was true, and offered an apology.
Unfortunately, in the grand scheme of things, not much has changed in South Korea since then. The nation still seems to be suffering from pervasive occult influence, especially in their culture and media. Of course, if the 8 Goddesses do exist, seven of them are still on the loose. In an interview, Choi “denied creating the Eight Fairies group, owning the tablet or knowingly receiving classified information.” (The Korean word used translates to both ‘goddesses’ and ‘fairies.’)
Her latter two claims were proven to be lies, but officially, the truth of the cult remains a (probably carefully protected) mystery. The alleged seven other Goddesses remain unidentified, though the small pool of eligible candidates makes speculation rather straightforward. They are all said to be South Korean citizens, and are either billionaires themselves, or have billionaire husbands.
On the bright side, what happened in South Korea was unprecedented in the post-9/11 age. It was an actual ‘happening’ as they say. The story may have had a short shelf life, but the media had no choice but to confirm that a cult had taken control of the president of a major industrial nation. Even NBC News had to admit the truth, only for their own Savannah Guthrie to later scream at President Trump like a crazed lunatic that such cults don’t exist.
The closest thing Americans can point to in comparison was Pizzagate, which to be fair, was still glorious. Although it was quickly spun down in scope and refocused, we got to watch as that unexpected attack ignited genuine populist outrage, which then gave way to genuine, hysterical panic amongst the elites. In the US, those righteous efforts may have kept a witch from becoming president, but in South Korea, they dethroned a sitting one.
