This man nearly lost support for his passage of the Agricultural Land Reform Amendment Act, which redefined his country's sharecroppers as "small land owners." His sabotage campaigns introduced him to Colonel Preston Goodfellow, the primary force behind his rise to power, though his stint with the OSS is better remembered for the Hangang Bridge incident. In his first term, he seized the Dokdo Islands and outlawed the Progressive Party, while his third saw an attempt to prop up his appointed successor Yi Gi-bung through rigged elections exposed, leading to his resignation following the April Revolution. Throughout his rule he maintained his long-held belief that his country should remain united after the Treaty of Panmunjom. For 10 points, name this first president of South Korea.
