South Korea - Recent A Seoul-based expert on Saturday criticized Yoon Suk-yeol's foreign policy as president, while hoping for a quick impeachment process so that South Korea could reinstate diplomatic relationship with major countries.

Impeached President said he will “never give up” and called for officials to maintain stability in government functions during what he described as a “temporary” pause of his presidency.

Protesters on the streets of Seoul erupted with emotion on Saturday after lawmakers passed a motion to impeach South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol, whose short-lived declaration of martial law earlier this month stunned the nation.
