🔥 Political drama unfolds in Seoul! South Korea's main opposition Democratic Party announced plans to impeach Prime Minister Han Duck-soo during a heated televised meeting Tuesday. The move comes just weeks after President Yoon Suk-yeol's own impeachment, throwing the country's leadership into uncharted waters.
🎤 'This administration has lost touch with the people,' declared the party's floor leader, framing the impeachment as a bid to 'restore accountability.' Han, who temporarily assumed presidential duties after Yoon's ouster, now faces fresh scrutiny over economic policies and alleged governance failures.
💼 Analysts call this the latest chapter in South Korea's political chess game, with implications for foreign investors eyeing Asia's fourth-largest economy. While legal experts debate the impeachment's chances in the National Assembly, young protesters are already trending #KoreaInCrisis on social platforms.
🌐 What's next? The constitutional court has 180 days to rule once proceedings begin. Global markets are watching closely – will this political storm cool down or escalate into a full-blown constitutional crisis? Stay tuned for updates! 📲
