South Korea's constitutional court has begun trial proceedings for the impeachment of President Yoon Suk Yeol, who was suspended for declaring martial law and plunging his country into political turmoil. The court now has six months to decide whether to remove Yoon or reinstate him. Yoon's ruling People Power Party (PPP) has been grappling with the fallout ever since, with its leader announcing his resignation. While public hearings for Yoon's impeachment trial could take months, the court is under pressure to decide quickly and bring an end to political uncertainty. Protesters have vowed to keep up their calls for Yoon's removal during court proceedings. The court says it could run Yoon's trial with just six judges, and set a preliminary hearing date for 27 December. If the court upholds impeachment in Yoon's case, the country must hold fresh presidential elections within 60 days. In the meantime, Prime Minister Han Duck-soo is serving as acting president.
