Storm in a teacup. Smells like political jockeying.
Surely South Koreans have more important things to worry about.

K.J is laughing out loud in Pyongyang.

So he found his voice?

SK is not ruled by law. It just pretends to be, yet, as we have seen this nation long enough, frequently overidden by 국민정서법 (comfortable translation to English does not exit as it is this much unique to SK, you know? ) and by Pro-North agents. You don't have to be Yoon's fan anyway but you could see something really wrong with this nation, including those regular posters excited about his being arrested here in JAPAN news comment board.

South Korea pretends to be a country governed by laws in order to be called a developed country, but unfortunately the reality is completely different.
Japan had a system of Taisho democracy, which was a gradual movement towards political participation by ordinary people, but there is nothing similar in South Korea.
Confucianism, which was introduced from China, has also had a negative influence on this.
That's why even today, many South Koreans believe that "even judges can be managed as long as you pay them."
A country where national sentiment is given priority in the order of 1. national sentiment → 2. domestic law → 3. international law cannot be a developed country.
This is why other countries say about Korean law that it is "Only in Korea."

He's screwed. He's gonna spend the next party of his life behind bars, where he belongs. But even Park was released after all the money she embezzled.

South Korea is nothing more than a sad vassal state of the US with some hot girl idol groups. Every president they have is a puppet.

His cozy with Kishida brought him a very bad reputation in South Koreans.
