On April 4, 2025, at 11:22 a.m., the Constitutional Court 헌법재판소 sustained the impeachment of Yoon Suk-yeol 윤석열, removing him from the office. The court found that Yoon's martial law declaration was a serious infringement of the democratic order, and rejected Yoon's argument that his martial law was only a brief warning for the public.
As a result of the court's ruling, Yoon is no longer the president. Snap election for the next presidency will take place within 60 days, or June 3.
