Korean Democratic Party Attempting to Remove Judge Overseeing Former President’s Insurrection Trial
The DP must be really concerned that this judge will not be in favor of convicting Yoon if they are going through all this trouble to remove him:
The Democratic Party (DP) on Monday disclosed photos it claims show a judge overseeing the insurrection trial of former President Yoon Suk Yeol at a hostess bar, shortly after the judge denied allegations in connection with such a hostess bar.
Jee Kui-youn of the Seoul Central District Court has been at the center of the allegations, but flatly denied such allegations of being treated to multiple visits to the hostess bar.
However, Rep. Noh Jong-myeon, the spokesperson for the DP’s election committee, presented images of Jee seated alongside pixelated two individuals at the bar, in what he claimed was taken inside the bar in Seoul’s affluent Gangnam district.
“The interior patterns and props in the two photos are identical,” Noh said, without elaborating on when the photos were taken. “We cannot entrust an insurrection trial to a judge who blatantly lied despite clear photographic evidence.”
Noh called for Jee’s immediate removal from the bench, saying that the party is considering filing the case with the Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials.

Those photos are deeply questionable. But knowing DPK, they won’t back down. They are 탄핵당 (the impeachment party).
That’s rich, coming from a 내란당 party that tried to impose military rule and abolish democracy.
Get over it. Nothing happened. You know what is more of an rebellion and an abolishment of democracy? 30+ impeachments and implementing/changing laws to protect one individual. Complete abuse of power and parlimentary dictatorship to me.
