Charges and counter-charges reverberate around South Korea’s impeached president, Yoon Suk-yeol. Add “resisting arrest” to the “insurrection” claimed by his foes. Then again, how about accusing the investigators of “trespassing” — and even staging an “insurrection” of their own — in Korea’s version of “Catch Me if You Can”?

South Korea's opposition-controlled National Assembly voted to impeach acting President Han Duck-soo, further deepening the country's political crisis.

The impeachment of Han Duck-soo, acting president since Yoon was impeached on Dec. 14 for declaring martial law, has thrown South Korea's once-vibrant democratic success story into uncharted territory.

South Korean lawmakers impeached acting President Han Duck-soo on Friday, two weeks after parliament voted to remove President Yoon Suk Yeol, further escalating tensions in South Korea.

The chief of security for South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol said on Sunday he could not cooperate with efforts to arrest the impeached leader, in remarks that could push the political crisis towards another high-stakes confrontation.

Thousands braved heavy snow in Seoul on Sunday to rally for and against arresting impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol, as South Korea's political crisis appeared headed toward another high-stakes confrontation.

Thousands of people have braved freezing temperatures and snow to protest both for and against South Korea's president outside his residence in Seoul.
