STORYLINE:
Supporters of impeached South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol demanded his reinstatement at a rally in Seoul on Saturday.
Yoon was impeached by the opposition-controlled National Assembly on Dec. 14 over his Dec. 3 martial law decree.
His presidential powers have been subsequently suspended, and the Constitutional Court will determine whether to formally remove him from office or reinstate him.
The court is already reviewing whether to uphold Yoon’s earlier impeachment.
It comes after South Korea’s opposition-controlled National Assembly voted on Friday to impeach acting President Han Duck-soo despite vehement protests by governing party lawmakers, further deepening the country’s political crisis set off by President Yoon Suk Yeol’s stunning imposition of martial law and ensuing impeachment.
Han, who was appointed prime minister by Yoon, became acting president after Yoon, a conservative, was impeached by the National Assembly about two weeks ago over his short-lived Dec. 3 imposition of martial law.
