By Eduardo Baptista, Hyunsu Yim and Joyce Lee SEOUL (Reuters) -Authorities sought on Friday to execute an arrest warrant for impeached South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol, as a crowd of protesters faced off with police outside his residence and vowed to block any attempt.

The article from MSN discusses the arrest of South Korea's impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol. Authorities arrived at his residence to execute an arrest warrant issued by the Constitutional Court, following his impeachment by the National Assembly. Yoon faces allegations of corruption, abuse of power, and interference in a private investigation involving his close aides. The impeachment process was initiated after months of political turmoil and public protests demanding accountability. The arrest marks a significant moment in South Korean politics, highlighting issues of governance, legal accountability, and the balance of power. The court's decision to allow the arrest was based on substantial evidence suggesting Yoon's involvement in illegal activities, setting a precedent for how high-level political figures are treated under the law in South Korea.
