The unraveling of Choi’s career began with a covert operation conducted by the O’Keefe Media Group. In a series of secretly recorded conversations, Choi, who held a position of trust within the diplomatic corps, made a series of admissions that effectively ended his professional life. Most damagingly, Choi was captured on video openly acknowledging that his romantic partner’s father was a direct affiliate of the Chinese Communist Party.
