Han Dong-hoon Resigns as South Korea's Ruling Party Leader After 204-85 Vote to Impeach Yoon Suk Yeol
Dec 16, 2024, 02:21 AM
Han Dong-hoon, the leader of South Korea's ruling People Power Party, announced his resignation on December 16, 2024, following the impeachment of President Yoon Suk Yeol. This decision comes after a parliamentary vote on December 14, where 204 members supported the impeachment, while 85 opposed it. Han stated that he could no longer fulfill his duties as party leader due to the collapse of the party's leadership structure and expressed his sincere apologies to the public for the turmoil caused by the impeachment process and Yoon's brief declaration of martial law. Han, who had initially opposed the impeachment, later supported it, leading to significant backlash from within his party. His resignation marks a significant shift in South Korea's political landscape amid ongoing instability.
