South Korea's President Yoon Suk Yeol arrested: What's next?

[@razorclaw333]

"He was submitting himself for questioning..." but still needed more than 3,000 police officers to arrest him 😂

[@thexfile.]

South Korea has a history of police violence. They are sensitive towards that kind of thing.

[@blessedcheflim8579]

He will miss such entourage soon..😂

[@wongchinkong4505]

5000 police entourage to and from impeachment trial attendance.

[@user-be9oe9hz7k]

I want to believe that after THAT DRAMA Constitutional Court should make obvious decision - confirm impeachment and set new election date, despite that ruling party is trying to delay that to avoid their very probable loss. The main aim for jury now is to avoid pressure from any side and remain calm and independent

[@john3945]

The Korean reporter didn’t answer the question (what next) properly and veered off to unimportant topic (video recording). She should have focused on the fact that within 48hrs the prosecutors need to request imprisonment warrant to the courts. If the court approves the warrant, the president goes to jail. If the court rejects, the president goes home. The court usually makes decision within 24hrs. Either way he will be preparing for trial.

[@howyuanlok15]

His political career end forever, bringing turmoil to not only Korea but also the region. Disastrous politician.

[@lengzai128]

He's not above the law, time to face the music.

President Yoon has voluntarily presented himself to avoid bloodshed. The arrest warrant was issued illegally and the declared martial law was extremely peaceful and there were no casualties involved. There was no military control of the media and utilities. President Yoon declared martial law to send a message to the people of the unlawful practices of the assembly which have paralyzed the executive branch. The assembly is controlled by Korea's democratic party, contrary to the name "democratic", they are colluding with China and North Korea to undermine freedom and democracy with socialistic and totalitarian ideal and law. The leader of the democratic party is currently on trial for illegal wiring of funds to North Korea and many other criminal charges. They are trying to put President Yoon in jail as soon as possible to have an early election to make their democrat party's leader become president to control all three branches of the government. Freedom in Korea is in a very precarious state. We need the help of the free Allies to make sure that China and North Korea do not dare manipulate freedom.

[@shaun5328]

That remains to be seen... Apparently, the president's party has been raking in support for the president, he probably has enough to get pardoned.

[@Strikerborn]

[@benk7177]

"Detention" and "detainment" are often used interchangeably, but there's a subtle difference: Detention 1. Refers to the act of holding someone in custody, usually for a short period. 2. Implies a temporary restriction of freedom, often for questioning, investigation, or as a disciplinary measure. 3. Can be used in various contexts, such as law enforcement, education (e.g., after-school detention), or immigration. Detainment 1. Generally considered a more formal or technical term. 2. Refers to the state of being detained or held in custody. 3. Often used in legal, administrative, or official contexts to describe the act of detaining someone. While both words convey the idea of being held or restricted, "detention" tends to emphasize the act or period of confinement, whereas "detainment" focuses on the state or condition of being detained.

If you never declare martial law, this incident may not happen. Is you that trigger these unrest. Do not blame others.

[@uzothson]

[@laineykay5463]

When he declared martial law, those who had become members of the National Assembly through illegal elections dismantled Korea's entire legal and political system, enacted pro-China and pro-North Korea laws, and dismissed all policies aimed at countering anti-American sentiment. To correct this, President Yoon sacrificed himself and took action for the sake of the people of South Korea.

[@Freefree-d2x]

exactly! The key is pro-China, pro-North Korea forces, and election fraud.

[@임문휘-m7o]

웃기고 있네. He’s the one who caused all this chaos! He ordered the arrest of opposition members and his own party leader. He also ordered the army to pull out MPs inside the parliament. What democracy is this? He’s trying to establish his own kingdom and thinks he’s above the law. You think his approval rating has gone up? Just look at the questions asked and if you still think it’s not biased, then your brains are probably not at the place where they are supposed to be.
