Korean Ethnic Mayor in Peru/Mario Jung

Despite the small size of its Korean population, Peru was the site of a major precedent for Korean immigrants' political integration when the city of Chanchamayo, Junín elected Mario Jung (정흥원, also spelled Mario Yung) as its mayor in 2011.[8] Jung thus became the first mayor of Korean descent not just in Peru but in all of South America, even though neighbouring countries such as Brazil have larger Korean populations and a much longer history of migration from Korea.[9] Jung, a South Korean citizen, had originally settled in Argentina in 1986 before coming to Peru in 1996.[9][10] Politically, Jung is a supporter of Fujimorism, and was known locally for his charitable work with the poor. Peruvian law requires that the president and members of Congress be Peruvian citizens, but does not place any requirements on lower-level politicians. Jung's inauguration was attended by South Korean consul Lee You-bum on behalf of ambassador Han Byung-kil.[1 _________________________________________________________________ Located at the entrance of the Amazon jungle, Peru's Chan-Chamayoshi is a major industry in producing tropical crops such as coffee, oranges and pineapples. The population is 200,000. Chung Heung-won was elected mayor of Chanchamayo in 2010 with a high approval rating, and won re-election in 2014 and served until 2019. After becoming mayor, hospitals and gymnasiums will be built in Chanchamayo, a poor city, and water purification facilities will be established with the support of the Seoul Metropolitan Government. In order to save coffee farmers, the company creates a direct line of trading and exports it to Korea. Another warm, Korean Wave engraved in the minds of Peruvians
