Rival protests erupted in central Seoul on Saturday, with thousands of supporters and opponents of impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol gathering to voice their opinions on his detention and impeachment.
Pro-Yoon supporters, waving national and US flags, gathered to demand his immediate release. They expressed frustration over the repeated efforts by prosecutors to extend his detention. One supporter, a 60-year-old woman named Nam Eun-kyung, hoped for the quick release of the president and emphasized the importance of upholding liberal democracy.
On the other side, anti-Yoon protesters, many of whom were students, rallied for his impeachment, accusing him of illegal actions during his presidency. A 19-year-old protester, Jeong Jae-rin, stated that she wanted to ensure Yoon was held accountable for what she referred to as his "illegal activities and insurrection," adding that she had come to the protest to stand with others in support of his impeachment.
Yoon, who was impeached in December for allegedly attempting to impose martial law, remains in detention as prosecutors determine their next steps.
