Storyline: As South Koreans grapple with the aftermath of President Yoon Suk-yeol's arrest, many express a mix of optimism over increased political awareness of equality before the law, and concerns about the nation's future.

Yoon, who was impeached and suspended from office in December, is the first sitting South Korean president to be arrested.

A South Korean court on Sunday extended President Yoon Suk Yeol's detention for up to 20 days, leading to violent protests by hundreds of angry supporters who stormed the court building, smashed windows and broke inside.
