In a dramatic turn of events early Sunday morning, over 100 supporters of South Korea's impeached President Yoon Seok-yeol forcefully breached the Seoul Western District Court. The protest, which occurred around 3 a.m., followed the court's decision to extend Yoon's detention period.
The group shattered windows and entered the courthouse premises, expressing their dissatisfaction with the judicial decision. Authorities responded swiftly to diffuse the situation and restore order.
This incident highlights the deep political divisions within South Korea as supporters of Yoon continue to rally behind their impeached leader amidst ongoing legal challenges.
