💨 Abstract

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol was impeached and removed from office by the Constitutional Court on charges of exceeding his powers in declaring martial law last year. The court's ruling followed months of political turmoil and protests. An election for a new president must be held within 60 days, with Prime Minister Han Duck-soo serving as acting president in the interim. Yoon faces a separate criminal trial on insurrection charges.
