South Korean President Moon Jae-in has kicked more than 200 employees out of the state-owned Kangwon Land’s premises after finding that they secured their jobs through unlawful means.

Yonhap News Agency reported that 226 employees got the boot from the president as the government continued to dig deeper into the hiring scandal that rocked South Korea’s locals-only casino.

Authorities found that the 226 employees secured employment in Kangwon Land primarily on the strength of their ties to politicians or other influential figures.

After holding a meeting, Blue House officials agreed to take measures against the employees involved in the hiring scandal, including their dismissal from office. Blue House is the executive office of the South Korean president.
