South Korea's acting President Han Duck-soo said on Tuesday that any decision by the Constitutional Court on the impeachment of President Yoon Suk Yeol should be respected, according to media reports.

The Washington Post (WP) stated, "The Constitutional Court has reinstated Prime Minister Han amid severe political chaos," adding, "This decision was made before the National Assembly voted on the impeachment motion against Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economy and Finance Choi Sang-mok."

South Korea's Constitutional Court dismissed the impeachment of Prime Minister Han Duck-soo on Monday, reinstating the 75-year-old as acting president while continuing to deliberate on impeached leader Yoon Suk Yeol.
