South Korea's impeached President Yoon Suk-yeol was arrested from the presidential residence on Wednesday, making him the country's first sitting president to be held in custody. This unprecedented move followed his brief imposition of martial law.
In a recent interview, a CGTN Stringer spoke with residents in Seoul to gauge their perspectives on Yoon's arrest and their hopes for future leadership in the nation.
Local retiree Kwon Young-woo shared his thoughts: \"I think the Korean leadership, whether in the ruling party or the opposition, must wake up and focus not on their party's interests but on the interests of the people and what they truly desire.\"
