Police will deploy all available resources to prevent any potential civil unrest on the day of the Constitutional Court’s ruling on the impeachment of President Yoon Suk Yeol, which is expected later this month.

The plan follows a January incident at the Seoul Western District Court, when far-right conservative protesters supporting Yoon stormed the building, leading to physical confrontations with police and damage to property. As the nation is sharply divided over the president’s impeachment, concerns are rising that those who are against the verdict may turn violent.

Previously, when Park Geun-hye’s impeachment was confirmed on March 10, 2017, a protest by her supporters resulted in four deaths. The deaths were attributed to pushing by the crowd, heart problems and a falling speaker.
