According to a report by China Media Observer Network, citing a report from South Korea's Fnnews News Network, local time on May 31, Lee Jae-myung, the presidential candidate of the Democratic Party of South Korea, announced that he would seek a special investigation into former President Yoon Suk-yeol.
He also stated that if Yoon Suk-yeol is sentenced to life imprisonment for rebellion, "he will ensure that Yoon Suk-yeol can never be released."
It was reported that on local time May 31, Lee Jae-myung said in an interview that there needs to be a special prosecutor investigation into rebellion.
He believes that if Yoon Suk-yeol is sentenced to life imprisonment for rebellion, he should not be pardoned. For those suspected of instigating rebellion like Yoon Suk-yeol, the punishment can only be death or life imprisonment.
Lee Jae-myung said that the pardon of former presidents Chun Doo-hwan and Roh Tae-woo was unavoidable, but it gave Yoon Suk-yeol the courage to declare martial law. "He believed that he could be pardoned. If he is found guilty and can never be released, then (declaring martial law) won't happen so easily. This time, we will make this happen."
On March 26, 2025, Lee Jae-myung, leader of South Korea's largest opposition party, the Democratic Party, arrived at the courthouse in Seoul. (Reuters)
