Indeed, she looks more like a Korean Margaret Thatcher – a lady not for turning, in Thatcher’s famous phrase, and with clearly thought-through political principles animating her actions.

尽管拥有超凡的个人魅力，但朴既不同于萨拉·佩林也不同于伊娃·裴隆。事实上，她更像是韩国的玛格丽特·撒切尔——按照撒切尔的那句名言，一位不会转弯的女士。深思熟虑的政治准则为她的一举一动注入活力。无论如何，她似乎注定要促成韩国关注她里程碑式的‘jul pu se’承诺，其字面意思是‘减税’、放松管制、重建法律秩序，而不单纯是延续其父辈的传统。以她为首的政府将首次摆脱韩国近年来问题重重的过去。
