Yoon’s approval rating climbs after strike


President Yoon Suk Yeol’s approval rating climbed to a three-month high as his stance on striking doctors gains support among voters frustrated with disruptions to the health-care system.

Yoon’s support level rose one percentage point to 34%, the highest since November, according to a weekly poll by Gallup Korea. This is a turnaround from just weeks ago, when his approval rating slid to a nine-month low after a video emerged that appears to show his wife receiving a designer bag.
