South Korean president Yoon's departure sparks political tensions
Former South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol is set to move back to his private residence on Friday after being removed from office. This follows a Constitutional Court ruling that upheld his impeachment, culminating months of constitutional challenges following his controversial attempt to impose martial law in December. His removal has intensified societal divisions and reignited support among his conservative followers.
Yoon, accompanied by his wife and several pets, will travel in a motorcade from the official residence to his apartment in Seoul. Despite being ousted, he faces serious legal challenges, including charges of leading an insurrection, which could result in a death sentence or life imprisonment if proven.
A snap election is scheduled for June 3, and questions loom about Yoon's potential influence despite his impeachment. His departure has sparked a crowded race for the presidency, with nearly 20 candidates vying for the conservative People Power Party nomination. They will face off against Lee Jae-myung, the populist Democratic Party contender who is currently leading in polls.
Yoon's decision to impose martial law, which he described as an effort to combat Democratic Party interference with his policies, remains a key issue. Meanwhile, Lee Jae-myung has promised to address economic inequality and promote technological advancements if elected.
