South koreas park says would wait for court to uphold impeachment

You're referring to the recent political developments in South Korea!

On December 10, 2016, South Korea's Constitutional Court upheld the impeachment of President Park Geun-hye, making her the first democratically elected leader in the country's history to be removed from office. The court's decision came after a months-long investigation into allegations of corruption and abuse of power.

Prior to the court's ruling, President Park had maintained that she would not resign and would instead wait for the court's decision. In a televised address, she said: "I will wait for the court's decision and will not resign. I will continue to carry out my duties as president until the end of my term."

However, after the court's ruling, Park was formally removed from office and replaced by Prime Minister Hwang Kyo-ahn as acting president. Park was also banned from politics for 18 months.

It's worth noting that Park's impeachment was sparked by a massive corruption scandal involving her close friend, Choi Soon-sil, who was accused of using her influence to pressure large companies into making donations to two non-profit foundations that Park controlled. The scandal led to widespread protests and calls for Park's resignation.
