On Yoon's life sentence... Lee Jun-seok will never be forgiven, a just verdict. On the 19th, upon former President Yoon Seok-yeol's first trial sentencing him to life imprisonment on charges of leading an insurrection, Lee Jun-seok, leader of the New Reform Party, stated, "In a democratic republic, power that treats the sovereign as an enemy is never forgiven. This verdict is heavy, but justified."
