  • Prime Minister Han Duck-soo, who became South Korea's acting president after Saturday's impeachment of Yoon Suk Yeol, is a career technocrat whose wide-ranging experience and reputation for rationality could serve him well in his latest role.

Han Duck-soo has been appointed as South Korea's acting president following the impeachment of President Yoon Suk Yeol. Han, a seasoned politician and former prime minister under President Roh Moo-hyun from 2007 to 2008, brings a wealth of experience in both domestic and international affairs to the role.
