Tips

usage
As a Korean surname 朴 is read Piáo, not pǔ "plain". Chinese reads a Korean name by the Mandarin sounds of its characters, so Geun-hye becomes 槿 "hibiscus" + 惠 "kindness": 朴槿惠.
history
She was impeached over a corruption scandal in December 2016 and removed from office in March 2017, the first South Korean president to lose office this way.
