South Korea’s Constitutional Court Upholds Han Duck-soo’s Position as Prime Minister

South Korea's political landscape saw a significant development as the Constitutional Court struck down the impeachment of Prime Minister Han Duck-soo. The decision, announced on March 24, 2025, reinstated Han, who had been temporarily removed from his position due to allegations of misconduct and abuse of power.

The impeachment attempt against Han Duck-soo was initiated by opposition lawmakers, who accused him of overstepping his authority and mishandling several key policy issues. Despite these allegations, the Constitutional Court ruled that there was insufficient evidence to justify his removal, thereby allowing him to continue serving as the country's Prime Minister.

This ruling has sparked a variety of reactions across the political spectrum. Supporters of the Prime Minister view the court's decision as a validation of his leadership, while critics argue that it highlights flaws in the judicial system. The decision has also fueled ongoing debates about political accountability and governance in South Korea.

As South Korea continues to navigate its complex political environment, the reinstatement of Han Duck-soo is likely to influence the country's political dynamics in the coming months. The focus now shifts to how the government will address the public's concerns and move forward under his leadership.
