South Korea's Justice Ministry has banned President Yoon Suk Yeol from leaving the country amid rising calls for his resignation over treason and abuse of power investigations.
Yoon's presidency is now referred to as being in a 'vegetative' state, as his party boycotted an impeachment vote and the prime minister assumed control of governance.
The head of the Corruption Investigation Office stated that they would conduct a thorough investigation into the leaders involved in the treason allegations against Yoon.
Legal experts express concern that the move to have the prime minister take control is a power play intended to force Yoon to resign, questioning its legality.
