On January 2, 2025, South Korean police attempted to arrest impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol at his residence in Seoul.
The arrest warrant was issued on December 31, following his controversial declaration of martial law in early December 2024.
The operation faced strong resistance from Yoonโs security personnel and supporters, leading to a standoff that forced authorities to suspend the attempt due to safety concerns.
The incident has further fueled political instability in South Korea, as the nation awaits a Constitutional Court ruling on Yoonโs impeachment, expected by June 2025.
