Chung Mong Hun

Chung Mong Hun
▪ 2004

      South Korean businessman (b. 1948, Seoul, S.Kor.—d. Aug. 4, 2003, Seoul), used his position as chairman of Hyundai Asan (part of the Hyundai conglomerate founded by his father) to push for reconciliation between North and South Korea, but he became embroiled in scandal after it was alleged that he had funneled money to the North Korean government to ensure that a 2000 summit between the two countries would take place. Indicted for falsifying his company's books to hide some $100 million in payments, he committed suicide.
