Seoul (Reuters) -The security chief of impeached South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol, under investigation for blocking Yoon's arrest, resigned on Friday and said any further efforts to detain the ex-leader must avoid bloodshed.
Yoon's short-lived declaration of martial law on Dec. 3 has plunged one of Asia's most vibrant democracies into a period of unprecedented political turbulence.
