Reply to comment by Hattix in TIL in response to infamously high suicide rates at Mapo Bridge in Seoul, South Korea, the bridge was adorned with suicide prevention messages and uplifting photos. These measures weren't enacted by the government, however, instead the entire project was financed by Samsung's life insurance division by evilclownattack

Where did you find that presidential candidates have to be approved by Samsung? Legit never heard of it. Couldn't find anything online about it either
