In return, Lee Young Roh promised, SK would get help from the new administration if the company "faced any problems," according to the indictment. During a follow-up meeting in the luxurious Plaza Hotel in downtown Seoul less than a week later, Sohn met with Choi Do Sul?a Roh confidant who is so close to the President he is known as "the eternal butler"?and handed over $915,000 worth of certificates of deposit, prosecutors allege in the indictment, which was lodged against...

...waiting trucks while clusters of fans linger under umbrellas looking très misérables. The cabbie didn't have to say a word: it's all too obvious Britney Spears isn't here. Instead, she's just up the street, ensconced in a suite at the superluxe Plaza Athénée. Spears hasn't left the hotel since she checked in two days ago and began canceling her every public appearance, press conference and interview, leaving some 350 frustrated journalists cursing in a dozen languages. About the only outsiders allowed near her have been the stream...
