Kim Chong-in, and Sohn Hak-kyu are not as toxic as other opposition politicians who are trying to run for president. There is a rumor that they will form an alternative political group aside from existing two major parties, trying to position themselves as centrist opposition. Somehow Manafort must have got wind of local political development, and try to see what kind of group (party) could replace the current government.

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has asked for an intelligence briefing on North Korea's nuclear weapons program, Reuters reported Sunday.

"Trump's first, and at that time only, request for a special classified intelligence briefing was for one on North Korea and its nuclear weapons program," the news agency said citing a senior U.S. intelligence official. "North Korea and its nuclear program has also been of interest to retired Lieutenant General Michael Flynn, Trump's choice for national security advisor."

China could put an end to North Korea if they wanted to.

Make China's control over North Korea one of the points in future trade negotiations with China.

Manafort got the same briefing that would have been given to the Russian ambassador.
