South Korea's Impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol's Senior Aides Offer Resignation on January 1, 2025, Amid Two New Judge Appointments
Jan 2, 2025, 02:45 AM
Senior aides to South Korea's impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol, including his chief of staff, policy chief, national security advisor, and special advisor on foreign affairs, have offered to resign en masse. This collective resignation comes after Acting President Choi Sang-mok appointed two new judges to the Constitutional Court, which is set to decide Yoon's impeachment trial. The aides submitted their resignations on January 1, 2025, following a statement from Yoon's office expressing regret over the appointments. Despite the resignations, some aides returned to work on January 2, indicating a possible reconsideration of their decision amid criticism of their actions as a form of rebellion against the interim administration.
