There's been a moratorium on executions in South Korea since 1998 (the last executions being in 1997), so this won't happen - the alternative for a guilty conviction is life imprisonment.
Eh, traitors and fascists can hang IMO. Would you have sentenced Hitler to life imprisonment? I think some deserve to hang.
That sad I know jack about the former south korean president, so I won't comment on if he should live or die.

Or... They also remove the moratorium to drive the point home.

Which would mean they are moving in the wrong direction. Death penalty is a tool of totalitarism, not a characteristic of a healthy democracy.

Yes. Yes I would. Hitler killed himself, he didn't want to be captured and imprisoned. Let him rot in a little tiny cell.
Or just give some Holocaust survivors an hour with him every day.

this should’ve happened in the US as well, but half the party are sycophants, bound to the cult
