South Korea’s acting leader has vowed to convey to the world that things are back to normal following parliament’s impeachment of conservative President Yoon Suk Yeol. But rival parties are squabbling over the appointments of justices who will determine whether to unseat or reinstate him. During a Cabinet Council meeting on Tuesday, acting leader and Prime Minister Han Duck-soo says he will “do my utmost to inform the international society that Republic of Korea is fast regaining stability." Political parties bickered over whether to fill three vacant justices’ seats at the Constitutional Court. To formally end Yoon’s presidency, the nine-member court panel needs support from at least six justices.
