Yoon's Home: A Tense Standoff in South Korea

In South Korea, impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol is stuck inside his heavily guarded residence. Why? Because investigators want to question him about a power grab. Things got tense on January 3 when dozens of investigators tried to enter the compound, but were blocked. Since then, supporters and opponents of Yoon have been shouting at each other across police lines. No one got hurt, but tensions are rising. Yoon's lawyers warn that if he's arrested, it could cause a big fight among his supporters. All this started when Yoon declared martial law last month to deal with a disagreement with parliament. But that didn't work out, and now he's facing a possible arrest.The anti-corruption agency, along with police and military, are trying to decide how to detain Yoon. They're worried about a clash between the presidential security service and the police. The acting leader of South Korea warned both sides to stay calm. Meanwhile, the chief of the presidential security service, Park Jong-joon, resigned and was questioned by police. Yoon says he'll fight to the end against efforts to remove him from office. South Korean presidents have special immunity, except for charges of rebellion or treason. If Yoon is detained, investigators have two days to decide whether to arrest him formally or let him go.
