In addition, about 10 majors and county heads are waiting for a trial with a sentence that could nullify their elections.

 BryBlog: Remember
Located in northwestern South Korea, Gapyeong is well known for its natural beauty with mountains cliffs reaching 700-800 meters above sea level, straddled by lush green valleys and lakes.
On the fringes of Koreas' industrial ring, Gapyeong maintains a robust agricultural economy and is renowned for producing Korean White Nuts (pine-nuts), apples, grapes, and mushrooms.
No, you probably haven't heard of Gapyeong, and if someone mentioned that name too you, it is likely that instead of pine-nuts and mountains, you would be thinkin of goofy kids dancing against white backdrops modelling the latest in tween Gap fashion.
