🚨Official Statement from Former President Yoon Suk Yeol’s Legal Team
Former President Yoon Suk Yeol’s legal team argued that the recent arrest warrant request is an unlawful measure with serious procedural flaws. 1.Procedural Violation The special prosecutor’s office requested the warrant unilaterally without coordinating the appearance schedule, violating the principle of due process. 2.Claim of Redundant Investigation Since Yoon has already undergone two thorough investigations on the foreign exchange issue, requesting another warrant for the same matter constitutes unnecessary repeated investigation and coercion. 3.Suspicion of Political Motivation The attempt to execute the warrant at dawn in an abrupt manner is seen as evidence of political considerations influencing the process. 4.Conclusion The legal team concluded that the arrest warrant was an unjust measure driven by political motives, disregarding procedural justice.
On December 3 last year, former President Yoon Suk-yeol declared martial law in South Korea to eradicate anti-state forces and election fraud. Not a single casualty occurred that day, and martial law was swiftly lifted. The Democratic Party of Korea, then the opposition party, and Gyeonggi Province Governor Lee Jae-myung condemned this as ‘incitement to rebellion,’ which ultimately led to impeachment. Following the impeachment, Prosecutor General Yoon Suk-yeol has endured all manner of human rights violations to this day.
However, CCTV footage was recently released revealing that martial law was only declared after the constitutional requirements for convening a State Council meeting were met. This revelation further fueled public outrage. The Korean Democratic Party currently appears to be taking a stance that seems to be attempting to effectively hand Korea over to China, collaborating with the Chinese Communist Party and the U.S. Democratic Party.
Recently, a lawmaker even proposed an extremely dangerous and insane bill suggesting leasing land occupied by U.S. Forces Korea to the Chinese Communist Party.
In South Korea, there is an unofficial group within the judiciary known as the "Judicial Research Society" and "International Human Rights Law Research Society." Some people describe them as a kind of legal cartel. While the group claims to be simply a research organization, it is often criticized for having a left-leaning political bias, which has led to considerable controversy. There are even rumors circulating that some of its members might be "Kim Il-sung scholarship students" — a phrase used to imply pro-North Korean sympathies.

There are claims that since the 1980s, "Kim Il-sung scholarship students" have been recruiting members from activist circles, building underground networks, and supporting students preparing for the civil service and bar exams. It's said that those with strong academic performance are steered toward careers in the legal profession, while those with weaker results are funneled into civic groups or activist organizations.

President Yoon's Constitutional Court trial faced several issues from the beginning. Although there were controversies regarding the qualifications of the judges, I will highlight just a few points specifically related to the impeachment trial.
First, there was controversy over a Constitutional Court justice reportedly advising the National Assembly to withdraw the charge of insurrection from the list of impeachment grounds in order to expedite the proceedings. Beyond the controversy surrounding the judge's action itself, the revised charges should, in principle, have been subject to a renewed vote in the National Assembly. However, this procedure was not followed.

Among the eight Constitutional Court justices, Justice Lee Mi-seon's sister, Lee Sang-hee, served as the vice chair of the special committee calling for President Yoon Suk-yeol’s resignation and was a leading figure in the impeachment movement.
Another justice, Moon Hyung-bae, publicly described himself as being the “furthest to the left” and is also known to have close ties with Lee Jae-myung.

Justice Jeong Gye-seon's husband worked at the same law firm as attorney Kim Yi-soo, who was part of the legal team representing the National Assembly in the impeachment case. Her spouse, Hwang Pil-kyu, also previously took part in a public declaration calling for President Yoon Suk-yeol’s impeachment.

At the time, 6 out of the 8 Constitutional Court justices had previously served as NEC (National Election Commission) commissioners.

They scheduled hearings twice a week in a fixed manner, disregarding the president's right to a defense. Requests for the president to speak were denied, and when his legal team did speak, a stopwatch was used to strictly time their statements. Key pieces of evidence were dismissed, and it’s said that the judge who had openly identified himself as being the “furthest to the left” persuaded the remaining justices to reach a unanimous decision to impeach the president.

The declaration of martial law by President Yoon was a legitimate measure, whereas the impeachment against him lacked justification.
