On-point: President Yoon's impeachment ruling likely to happen in April

Time is ticking for the court to make its final call on President Yoon as the nation's leader.

And as reported by our Oh Soo-young, the big day will likely come in April.

We turn to Professor Paik Eun-seok for more.

Good to have you back, Professor Paik.

1. It's still possible the court will publicize a date today, right?

If yes, in the morning? In the afternoon?

In that case, when next week do you think the ruling day will be announced?

2. If the court decides not to announce a ruling date again today, we have to wait until the following week yet again.

With by-elections set for April 2nd, next Wednesday, some say the verdict may come on Thursday or Friday.

What's your take on it?

3. But what's widely expected is that things will wrap up before April 18th, when two of the 8 Constitutional Court justices retire.

What happens if the two justices retire before the final verdict is delivered?

4. Prime Minister and acting President Han Duck-soo is under great pressure to appoint justice nominee Ma Eun-hyuk ever since Han returned to office.

Will Yoon's impeachment ruling be delayed if Ma is appointed?

By how much?

5. But the question is: will Han appoint Ma?

Eventually?

When will he appoint him?

Thanks so much for sharing your insight with us this morning.

Have a great one.
