Jun Byung-hun, the senior presidential secretary for political affairs, offered to resign Thursday over a burgeoning graft scandal involving his two former aides.
In a meeting with reporters, Jun repeated his denial of any involvement in the scandal and said he is ready to face a prosecutorial probe.
"I feel very frustrated that I have caused trouble to the president though I have done my best to serve him in the short period of time," he said.
