South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol has made history by becoming the first leader of the country to be indicted, following his recent detention. The impeached president now faces rebellion charges that carry severe penalties, including the death penalty or life imprisonment. This development has further exacerbated the political turmoil in South Korea and deepened societal divisions.

Yoon's legal troubles do not end with the rebellion charges. Another legal proceeding will determine whether he will be formally dismissed as president or reinstated. The upcoming court hearings are expected to last approximately six months, during which Yoon will remain in jail.
