  "summary": "The Korea Times reports that special counsel Kwon Chang-young's team has completed its 180-day investigation into allegations involving former President Yoon Suk Yeol, his wife, and key administration officials. The investigation, which officially wrapped up on Sunday after launching in February, indicted 58 people, including Yoon, on charges such as abusing his power and corruption. The probe reopened allegations stemming from Yoon's failed 2024 martial law bid and corruption linked to former first lady Kim Keon Hee and the 2023 death of a Marine. Notable figures indicted include former National Security Adviser Shin Won-sik and former Principal Deputy National Security Adviser Kim Tae-hyo.",
