In a twist that's shaking up Seoul's political scene, the Seoul Western District Court dismissed impeached South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol's objection to the execution of an arrest warrant on Sunday. The decision comes amid a high-stakes legal battle that's got the nation glued to their screens. 📱⚖️
Yoon's defense team slammed the warrant as \"illegal and invalid,\" filing objections last Thursday alongside a challenge to a search warrant, as reported by Yonhap News Agency. This rare clash between a sitting leader and the judiciary has sparked heated debates about power, accountability, and South Korea's democratic checks and balances. 🔥
While the court's move doesn't immediately trigger Yoon's arrest, it signals a critical moment in his presidency. Political analysts say the drama could reshape alliances—or fuel public distrust—as the country navigates economic uncertainties and regional security challenges. 🌏💼
