A court hearing happened in Seoul on Saturday January 18th it was about if they should keep former president Yoon Suk Yeol in jail and if they should arrest him. Yoon is accused of doing things related to when he briefly tried to put martial law in place. The hearing took five hours with Yoon there the whole time.
After the hearing Yoon went back to the place he’s been held since Wednesday. He’s waiting to find out if the court will keep him there and maybe arrest him. The hearing was about looking at if they need to keep him locked up while they investigate the martial law stuff.
Yoon’s lawyers said he answered all the court’s questions. Now the court has to think about what was said and decide if Yoon stays in jail and if they will arrest him. This decision is important for the investigation into what he did with martial law.
