As a US citizen, I'm jealous they take corporate malfeasance seriously.

I'm not jealous of the South Korean Chaboel system though.

Yeah, but in that context it makes us look even worse. Like, South Korea has an institutionalized system of interlocking megacorporate congolomerates, and they still manage to better enforce their laws than we do. It's embarrassing.

Or maybe the whole thing is pushed by another megacorp or an internal power struggle?

Do you have any evidence/data for this? Why do you reject the simpler model that yes their law enforcement system is simply more efficient?
