SEOUL, Aug. 4 (Yonhap) -- The spokesman of the ruling Saenuri Party offered to resign Saturday, holding himself responsible for recent chaos over an alleged money-for-nomination scandal.
The party has been engulfed in a potentially explosive scandal where Rep. Hyun Young-hee allegedly became a lawmaker on a proportional representation ticket after giving 300 million won (US$265,000) to Hyun Ki-hwan, then a member of the party's nomination committee, ahead of April's general elections.
