South Korea is expected to hold its presidential election on June 3, following the removal of former president Yoon Suk Yeol. The final decision will be confirmed at a Cabinet meeting on Tuesday.
The South Korean government has tentatively scheduled the presidential election for June 3 to choose a successor to former president Yoon Suk Yeol. A final decision is expected during an upcoming Cabinet meeting, according to Yonhap News Agency.
Acting president Han Duck-soo will announce the confirmed date during the meeting, as the government prepares to designate the election day as a temporary public holiday. The vote must take place within 60 days of Yoon’s dismissal by the Constitutional Court, which ruled him out of office last Friday over an alleged attempt to declare martial law.
If the date is approved, candidates will need to register by May 11, and the official campaign period will start on May 12. Civil servants intending to run for office must resign by May 4 to meet legal requirements.
The newly elected president will take office immediately after the election results are announced, with no transition period.
