  "summary": "The Korea Times reports that the live broadcast of the sentencing hearing for former President Yoon Suk Yeol in his high-stakes election law case will take place next week. The ruling, which could force the main opposition People Power Party (PPP) to return nearly $30 million in reimbursed election expenses, is scheduled for 2 p.m. on Wednesday at the Seoul High Court. Yoon was previously sentenced in July to an 18-month suspended prison term for making false statements during the 2022 presidential campaign.",
