2 - President Park Geun-hye is in TTL the first woman President of South Korea and of any of the three major East Asian states (Japan, China, South Korea.) She is incredibly popular in South Korea, the most popular politician in fact, but has been criticized as the 'Dictator's Daughter' for her father's presidency in both TTL and OTL. Similarly, she is also named the 'Queen of Elections' in TTL and OTL for doubtlessly and easily winning reelection each time one occurs (though in TTL one has not occurred since she became President.) In TTL, she is much more in favour of a unified Asian force acting as a counterbalance to China and projecting and securing it's own interests abroad, without having to rely on the Western powers.
