"The Supreme Court's ruling will inevitably influence lower court proceedings; Oh Seok-joon recused himself to avoid controversy over impartiality."
"Former President Yoon did not attend the final appeal hearing, likely focusing on other ongoing cases."
"In the case regarding violations of the Public Official Election Act, the key is proving the defendant's awareness through physical evidence."
"Today's Supreme Court ruling is likely to be more painful for the main case involving Yoon Suk-yeol."
"The Special Counsel needs to view the case from an overall perspective, not just as a single facet."
