Storyline: South Korea formally set June 3 for a snap presidential election following former President Yoon Suk-yeol's ouster from office last week. The snap election date was confirmed at the cabinet meeting on Tuesday, presided over by Prime Minister Han Duck-soo, who has served as acting president with Yoon's impeachment. The election day was designated as a temporary holiday. Yoon was ousted from office on April 4 with the constitutional court's unanimous ruling to uphold his impeachment motion by the National Assembly. By law, after a president's removal, an acting president is required to designate the date of a snap presidential election within 10 days, and the election should be held within 60 days. Yoon declared an emergency martial law on the night of Dec. 3 last year, but it was revoked by the opposition-led National Assembly hours later. The impeachment motion against Yoon was passed in the parliament on Dec. 14, and he was indicted on Jan. 26 as a suspected ringleader of insurrection.
