President Yoon Suk-yeol described his recent appearance for questioning as a "voluntary" decision aimed at preventing violence, according to Yonhap News Agency.

"In order to stop unwanted bloodshed, I made the decision to appear in the prosecutor's office despite the illegality of these actions," Yoon stated.


He explained that investigators had attempted to breach the guarded area of his residence using "firefighter equipment," prompting his decision to cooperate.

Yoon, who has been impeached, reaffirmed his dedication to upholding the Constitution and legal system of South Korea while rejecting the validity of the investigative process.

"My consent to participate in that illegal and invalid process does not constitute its acceptance," he said, framing his actions as a step to prevent violence.

🪐🌌Celestial events: planetary alignments in February
 
This February, seven planets will align on one side of the Sun. However, the wide angular spread of 130 degrees means it won’t form a true "parade of planets," where planets appear closely aligned in a narrow view.
 
On February 28, Venus will be visible to the naked eye, and Mercury may also be spotted under ideal conditions, Lyudmila Koshman, an astronomer at the Moscow Planetarium, told Sputnik.
 
Earlier, in late January, six planets will similarly align. Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn can be seen without equipment, while Uranus and Neptune would require a telescope for viewing.
 
Though not a classic parade, these alignments offer a rare chance to view multiple planets in the night sky.
