Parliament's passage of bills on two special counsel probes
Lawmakers of the ruling People Power Party exit a plenary session of the National Assembly in Seoul on Dec. 28, 2023, before opposition lawmakers pass bills to launch special counsel probes into alleged stock manipulation by Kim Keon Hee, wife of President Yoon Suk Yeol, and allegations that six prominent people of the so-called 5 billion club were promised 5 billion won (US$3.8 million) each from an asset management firm involved in a corruption-ridden development project in the Daejang-dong district in Seongnam, south of Seoul.
