- Abstract
A reasonable apology is very important to the political scandal. Due to the particularity of the political event, we should pay attention to the time, attitude and content of apologizing. This article will focus on the improper apologies of political figures, taking Park's Choi case as an example to analyze the importance of apology and the wording and attitude of apology. Choi incident is an important event in South Korean politics, which led to the first impeachment among Korean presidents. Park Geun-hye's three national talks on the incident revealed the wording, timing, and expression that politicians should pay heed to in the course of apologizing when facing scandals.
