Yoon has struggled with scandals involving his wife Kim Keon-hee during a presidential campaign and since he won the single five-year presidency in May 2022.
Kim was suspected of having been involved in stock price manipulation to gain illicit profits while having interfered in candidate nominations for the 2022 by-elections and the 2024 parliamentary elections and even in public opinion manipulation during the 2022 presidential election.
According to a Gallup Korea poll, Yoon’s approval rating dived 3 percentage points from a week earlier to 16 percent this week, marking the lowest since Yoon took office in May 2022.
