THE embattled ruling party of South Korea's impeached President Park Geun-Hye has picked a new name - Liberal Korea - officials said on Thursday, as it seeks to distance itself from a sprawling corruption scandal.
The Saenuri - or New Frontier - party was formed from a merger of several centre-right parties in 1997 and was known as the Grand National Party until 2012.
