This market will resolve to "Yes" if President of South Korea Yoon Suk Yeol is released from custody by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". If Yoon is released but remains under house arrest, the market will still resolve to "Yes". If Yoon is released on parole, bond, or any other condition that results in them leaving state custody, the market will resolve to "Yes". Transporting Yoon to another location of custody (e.g., a different prison, court, or hospital within the correctional system) will not suffice to resolve this market to "Yes". The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from government authorities or corrections departments; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.Former South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol remains in detention following a February 19 life sentence for leading an insurrection tied to his 2024 martial law declaration, upheld after the Constitutional Court's April 2025 impeachment ruling removed him from office. Appeal hearings for this conviction and a separate five-year term for obstructing justice began March 4, with no rulings granting release amid ongoing trials. Recent reports of Yoon complaining about prison conditions underscore his continued custody, reinforcing trader consensus at 93% for "No" release before 2027, as appeals face high hurdles in South Korea's multi-tiered judicial process.
