South Korea's Constitutional Court to Rule on Yoon's Impeachment

The political landscape in South Korea is in turmoil as the Constitutional Court deliberates the impeachment of President Yoon Suk Yeol, who faces allegations stemming from a short-lived martial law. Following Yoon's impeachment, Prime Minister Han Duck-soo has also been targeted for removal, leading to Finance Minister Choi Sang-mok stepping in as acting president. Tensions are escalating as Yoon has resisted investigations and attempted detentions by authorities, resulting in a standoff with presidential guards. The court's decision is crucial, as it will determine Yoon's future and potentially lead to a presidential election within 60 days if he is ousted. The outcome of this legal battle could significantly shift South Korea's policies, particularly regarding relations with North Korea and the United States. As the situation develops, South Korea remains deeply divided over its political leadership.
