South Korea’s Constitutional Court has officially rejected the National Assembly’s impeachment motion against President Yoon Suk-yeol, which accused him of abusing his power and unlawfully interfering in prosecutorial investigations. The court unanimously ruled that the charges did not meet the threshold for removal from office, citing a lack of concrete constitutional or legal violations. The impeachment motion, led by opposition lawmakers, had plunged the country into political uncertainty. With the verdict, Yoon remains in power, but the controversy has deepened political divisions, sparking protests and renewed debate over executive accountability in South Korea’s democratic system.
