Hey there! 😊 Have you heard the news from South Korea? Let’s dive in together!
Choi Sang-mok, who is South Korea’s finance minister (that’s the person who helps manage the country’s money 💰), is set to become the acting president starting Friday!
Why is this happening? Well, Han Duck-soo, who was the acting president, has had his duties suspended. This happened because the National Assembly (that’s like their big group of lawmakers 🏛️) passed a motion to impeach him. Impeachment means they decided he should be removed from his position.
So, Choi Sang-mok will step in to take over the responsibilities as acting president. It’s kind of like when the class captain can’t lead, and someone else steps up to help out! 📝
Let’s wish Choi Sang-mok good luck as he takes on this important role! 🍀
