Two Chanel handbags, a BMW dealership and a controversial church will all be at the centre of a trial faced by South Korea's former first lady this week.
Kim Keon Hee, the wife of disgraced former president Yoon Suk Yeol, was arrested in August over a raft of charges including bribery, stock manipulation, and political interference - all of which she denies.
On Wednesday, less than a fortnight after her husband was sentenced to five years' in jail for abusing power and obstructing justice in relation to his failed martial law bid, Kim will receive the verdict in the first of three cases against her.
Prosecutors say Kim, 52, made more than 800 million won ($552,570; £404,050) by participating in a price-rigging scheme involving the stocks of Deutsch Motors, a BMW dealer in South Korea, between October 2010 and December 2012.
She is also accused of accepting luxury bags, a diamond necklace and other gifts worth up to 80m won as bribes from the controversial Unification Church in exchange for business favours, and receiving 58 free opinion polls, worth 270 million Korean won, from political broker Myung Tae-kyun before the 2022 presidential election.
