When Acting President Han Deok-soo put on hold the appointment of a constitutional judge, the Democratic Party of Korea immediately started the process of impeaching Han.

The Democratic Party of Korea has urged the appointment of a constitutional judge, saying that delaying the restoration of the "nine-member system" of the Constitutional Court is like a traitor in history and a "eulsa five enemy."

However, when Acting President Han Deok-soo made a decision to suspend the appointment on the condition of an agreement between the ruling and opposition parties, he immediately responded with impeachment.

Less than 30 minutes after the public statement came out, he proposed an impeachment motion.

[Park Chan-dae / Minjoo Party floor leader: It has become clear that Prime Minister Han Deok-soo has neither the qualifications to act as an acting president nor the will to defend the Constitution. The Democratic Party of Korea immediately proposed the impeachment of Prime Minister Han Deok-soo....]

Acting President Han's direct veto of various independent counsel laws without justification or suggestions to the President,

It also stated that there are suspicions of aiding and ignoring the civil war by actively participating in the civil war, such as helping to declare emergency martial law, and refusing to appoint a constitutional judge.

The submitted impeachment bill was immediately reported to the plenary session of the National Assembly,

[Jung Myung-ho / Director of the National Assembly: 170 people, including Park Sung-joon, proposed the impeachment of Prime Minister Han Deok-soo]

It is expected to be voted on at the plenary session tomorrow (27th), which will be held for the first time 24 hours after the report.

In this case, it will be 13 days after the president's impeachment passed the threshold of the National Assembly on the 14th.

The Democratic Party of Korea criticized the ruling party, which interferes with President Yoon's "impeachment judgment," for seeking to extend the rebellion.

[Jin Sung-joon / Chairman of the Democratic Party of Korea Policy Committee: Kwon Young-se, a former prosecutor, was elected as the chairman of the emergency committee and established a Yoon Suk Yeol bulletproof 'double pistol' system with floor leader Kwon Sung-dong. It's a blatant impeachment campaign.]

The Democratic Party of Korea saw that obstructing the normalization of the Constitutional Court was a trick of the ruling party aimed at dismissing President Yoon's impeachment, and brought up the strong-arm tactics of impeaching the acting president for the first time in constitutional history.Some point out that

could raise concerns about a "state vacuum" remains a burden.
