Today, January 28, the Seoul Central District Court found Kim Keon Hee, the wife of former South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol, guilty of corruption. The court's 27th criminal division held a sentencing hearing at 2:10 PM local time and declared her guilty.
It is noted that this is the first court verdict issued against Kim Keon Hee, and the proceedings were broadcast live for the first time.
She was accused of fraud related to Deutsche Motors stocks, receiving expensive gifts from the Unification Church organization, and manipulating public opinion during elections. Previously, a special prosecutor had sought a 15-year prison sentence for Kim Keon Hee.
