South Korea faces an abnormal situation in which an ”acting president” is steering national politics - Who is the new acting president, Choi Sang-mok?
On December 27, 2018, the National Assembly of South Korea passed an impeachment motion against Prime Minister Han Deok-soo, who was acting as president. Han was suspended from his duties, and Deputy Prime Minister for Economy and Minister of Strategy and Finance Choi Sang-mok took over as acting president.
