The road in front of Seoul City Hall was filled with crowds.

This is a rally calling for the swift decision of the Constitutional Court on the impeachment trial.

Participants demanded that, since the impeachment motion has passed, the Constitutional Court should quickly make a decision for the removal of President Yoon.

Organized by the progressive civic group 'Candlelight Action', participants marched through the Sejong-daero intersection and Gwanghwamun intersection, to the vicinity of the Constitutional Court.

Candlelight Action announced that they will hold a candlelight rally in front of the Constitutional Court every evening until a decision is made on the impeachment trial.

Near Gwanghwamun Square, Pastor Jeon Kwang-hoon's Sarang Jeil Church held a nationwide Sunday union worship service, arguing against the unjust impeachment motion against President Yoon.
