Fmr. First Lady Kim Keon Hee faces arrest hearing on corruption allegations

A Seoul court is holding a hearing today on whether to arrest former First Lady Kim Keon Hee, the wife of former President Yoon Suk Yeol.

Prosecutors argue that there's a high risk she will destroy evidence.

A decision could come as early as tonight , and if granted, it would mark the first time in the country's history that a former president and first lady are detained at the same time.
