Earlier in the day, the South Korean Constitutional Court rejected the impeachment of Han, meaning he will be immediately reinstated as acting president. The presidential administration of the Republic of Korea also welcomed the decision of the Constitutional Court, accusing the National Assembly of abusing its powers by impeaching government officials. "Today's decision confirms that the excessive impeachment of the National Assembly is a reckless and malicious political offensive," the office said. The presidential office also expressed hope that the prime minister's return to office would mean normalization of the country's governance.
