Es gab erhebliche Debatten und Diskussionen darüber, ob die Sonderstaatsanwaltschaft, die die Missetaten des ehemaligen Präsidenten Yoon Seok Yeol (z. B. Kriegsrecht vom 3. Dezember 2024) untersucht, die Todesstrafe oder eine lebenslange Haftstrafe für ihn beantragen würde.
Jetzt haben wir eine Antwort: Sie fordern die Hinrichtung.

Traitors should get what traitors deserve.
It would be wild to see the decades long pause in capital punishment resume with Yoon.
Not that it has a good chance of happening, but I also never expected to live through a martial law declaration either.
I know this isn’t the court ruling, but it’s still significant that the special prosecution is going straight for the death penalty instead of life imprisonment.
It’s much more likely the court will go for a harsh sentence or agree with the execution ruling in this case, compared to the special prosecution asking for life imprisonment.
I’m keeping my fingers crossed for an actual execution this time.
It’s just a wwe.
Specific opinions may vary, but one can’t really deny that South Korean politics is absolutely stimulating

I do think this is a case of aiming high and ending up lower but still with a good punishment. Life in prison for example.
I fully believe yoon should die. He attempted to overthrow the government and put lives of ordinary people at risk purely for his own gain. He is still a threat and the mascot for the remaining insurrectionists in the country.
Still, I am worried that the current mood in parliament and society wasn’t as convicted of a death penalty sentence. I am concerned that sitting on death row will just increase his chances of getting pardoned in a few years.
I am also partly convinced that yoon alone was not the only mastermind of this dictatorial power grab. I think there are several voices and influence peddlers in the conservative camp who have goals of eliminating democracy from korea.
What Korea needs is not some show trial throwing yoon in jail only to be pardoned in less time than an ordinary person would get for a murder charge. The national assembly and those that support the republic needs to remove the political power of those that support yoon and create a system that would make it impossible for someone to repeat what yoon did.
