Unification Minister Kim Yung-ho appeared before investigators Sunday for questioning regarding the martial law investigation. Special counsel Cho Eun-suk's team conducted the session at the Seoul High Prosecutors' Office in southern Seoul. Kim answered questions as a witness in the probe examining former President Yoon Suk Yeol's December 3 decree attempt. The minister joined four other Cabinet officials summoned to the presidential office before Yoon's announcement.
Kim previously described his efforts to dissuade the former president from proceeding with the declaration. The minister warned about potential economic consequences and diplomatic strain with the United States. His testimony detailed attempts to change Yoon's decision during the emergency Cabinet session. Investigators continue examining testimonies from government officials present during the martial law deliberations.
