Just when you thought politics couldn't get weirder, this mini-sode dives into a wild South Korean scandal that is not what you're expecting. The 82-year-old leader of the Unification Church (yep, the "Moonies") has been arrested for... giving gifts? To be fair, the "gifts" were Chanel bags and a diamond necklace for the nation's former first lady, who argued she's "not political," just a nice person who gives good stuff. This story has it all: an impeached president, a failed martial law attempt, and a cast of characters with so many similar names it's basically impossible to follow.
