South Korea’s Kim Keon-hee ignores Yoon in frosty courtroom reunion

The hearing lasted all of half an hour. Yoon Suk-yeol and his wife, appearing as a witness, made eye contact only once

3-MIN READ3-MIN ListenPark Chan-kyongin SeoulPublished: 12:24pm, 15 Apr 2026For the first time in nine months, former South Korean president Yoon Suk-yeol finally saw his wife again on Tuesday. He was the defendant. She was the witness. She barely looked at him.The reunion, their first since his arrest following a failed martial law declaration that ended his presidency, lasted all of 30 minutes. The couple made eye contact only once.

Yoon looked visibly thinner, his face gaunt and marked with age spots, his once-dark hair now almost entirely silver.

Kim Keon-hee wore her usual court uniform – black suit, white shirt, hair in a greying ponytail – and removed her face mask only to speak.
