Impeached President Yoon Suk-yeol Cornered Further
In Seoul, South Korea, on January 9, 2025, at the Wildflower Park in Hannam-dong, Yongsan-gu, a woman exercises while numerous photojournalists wait to cover the execution of an arrest warrant for impeached President Yoon Suk-yeol. The Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials (CIO) previously attempts to execute the first arrest warrant but fails due to resistance from Yoon and his Presidential Security Service personnel. Consequently, a second arrest warrant is issued by the court, and the CIO now plans to arrest Yoon in collaboration with the National Office of Investigation, with police special forces on standby if necessary.
