By Joyce Lee SEOUL (Reuters) -South Korea's Constitutional Court will hold its first hearing on Friday in the case of President Yoon Suk Yeol, after parliament impeached him over his short-lived martial law decree on Dec.

Last month, amid a series of mounting economic and political crises, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol issued a martial law decree—the first in more than 40 years. Yoon claimed that it was necessary to “eradicate anti-state forces” and “protect constitutional order.”

South Korea’s main opposition party submitted a motion on Thursday to impeach the country’s acting leader over his reluctance to fill three Constitutional Court vacancies ahead of the court’s review of rebellion charges against impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol stemming from his short-lived martial law decree on Dec.
