Ask what Korea is talking about.

The National Assembly, led by the ruling Democratic Party, passed a bill Friday calling for a special counsel probe into allegations of fabricated indictments targeting President Lee Jae Myung and others, Yonhap reports. The bill, introduced by the DP, had earlier cleared a parliamentary subcommittee on Nov. 4 and was brought to a plenary session on Nov. 5 before the final vote on Nov. 6. It seeks to investigate allegations of malicious prosecution under the previous Yoon Suk Yeol administration. The passage drew protests, though the documents do not detail the nature of the opposition.
