As Park Geun Hye has faced the worst crisis due to the revelation of her scandal, her confidants are turning their back on her one after another, the article said, adding:

An Jong Bom, former senior secretary in charge of policy coordination of Chongwadae, and Jo Yun Son, minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism, who had won the "deepest trust" of Park as her confidants, began passing the buck to Park.

Ri Sung Chol, vice-chairman of the "National Federation of Businessmen", is also taking the lead in shifting the blame.

But Ri Jong Hyon, representative of the "Saenuri Party", still goes with impunity.
