이명박 오늘 재수감... 검찰 출석한 뒤 동부구치소로

Former South Korean President Lee Myung-bak, who was sentenced late last week to 17 years in prison on embezzlement and bribery charges,... is being incarcerated again in the coming hours.
This comes as the Supreme Court upheld a verdict handed down by an appeals court.
Lee will be heading to the Seoul Dongbu Detention Center this afternoon.
Lee was detained after he was arrested in March 2018,... but was released a year later on bail.
