Park Chong jun has sensibly decided to cut his losses and cooperate with South Korean police leaving President Yoon increasngly isolated in his residence.
Yoon should hand himself over to get a more lenient sentence for insurrection and treason rather than force a show down and get the maximum penalty.
From media
South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol’s security chief resigned Friday, a week after leading a team that blocked an attempt to arrest the impeached president over his short-lived imposition of martial law.
Park Chong-jun offered to resign earlier in the day as he appeared for police questioning over alleged obstruction of duties last week. His offer was accepted by Acting President Choi Sang-mok. The resignation comes as the Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials, which is leading the probe into Yoon for alleged insurrection, is mulling their next move to take Yoon in custody.
