SKorea's ex-president leaves party ahead of snap polls

<br><br>**A Divisive Exit Yoon Suk Yeol Leaves Party Ahead of Snap Polls in South Korea**<br><br>South Korea is on the cusp of a significant political shift as snap elections loom following the impeachment of ex-president Yoon Suk Yeol. In a surprising move, Yoon announced his departure from the People Power Party (PPP) just days before the June 3 election.<br><br>The PPP had faced intense pressure to expel Yoon, whose December martial law declaration and subsequent trial on criminal charges have deeply divided the country. Yoon's decision to leave the party is seen as a last-ditch effort to salvage his party's chances in the upcoming election.<br><br>In a farewell message posted on Facebook, Yoon urged voters to support his former labor minister, Kim Moon-soo, who is now the PPP's presidential candidate. Kim has gained popularity for being the only Cabinet member who refused to apologize for failing to prevent martial law, earning him a reputation as a champion of transparency and accountability.<br><br>The snap election is seen as a crucial moment in South Korea's political landscape. The Democratic Party, led by Lee Jae-myung, currently leads the polls with 51% support, while Kim Moon-soo trails behind with 29%. The election is widely viewed as a referendum on Yoon's presidency and his handling of the country's political crisis.<br><br>Yoon's departure from the PPP has sparked mixed reactions. Some see it as an attempt to salvage what remains of his party's reputation, while others view it as a desperate attempt to cling to power. The Democratic Party has dismissed Yoon's exit as shameless, accusing him of invoking liberal democracy principles he himself destroyed.<br><br>As South Korea gears up for its snap election, the nation is left to wonder what the future holds. Will Kim Moon-soo be able to rally support and lead his party to victory? Or will Lee Jae-myung's strong lead hold up?
