North Korean media outlets reported President Yoon Suk Yeol’s impeachment on Monday, two days after the National Assembly voted to suspend him from office on Saturday.

The Rodong Sinmun, North Korea's most widely circulated newspaper, and the Korean Central News Agency, which targets international audiences, both reported that the National Assembly passed the motion to impeach Yoon with 204 votes in favor and 85 against. The report appeared on the sixth page of the Monday edition of the Rodong Sinmun.

Portraying the public anger represented by the large-scale rallies near the areas of the National Assembly and the presidential offices through Dec. 14, North Korean state media said that the President continued to spark people’s fury with a statement "spliced with lies and obstinacy," mentioning Yoon’s televised address on Dec. 12.

State media reported in English that Yoon "sparked off stronger rebuff and resentment of the political and public circles as the puppet shifted the responsibility for foolish emergency martial law declaration onto the opposition parties and the 'threat' from someone and insulted the struggle of the broad masses for impeachment as a 'sword dance of chaos.'"

The KCNA detailed the current political landscape in South Korea, highlighting that Yoon's political future hinges on the Constitutional Court's decision.

It stated that Yoon’s apparent self-defense disappointed some of the People Power Party lawmakers and led them to turn against the president, ultimately creating a separation within the ruling party. The North Korean state media mentioned the first attempt to impeach the president was scrapped with a group boycott by the People Power Party on Dec. 7.

The KCNA also said that top police officers and high-ranking military personnel, who are considered to be in connection with Yoon’s short-lived declaration of martial law, are suspended from their duties.

The report continued, "The investigation into puppet Yoon Suk Yeol, the ringleader of rebellion, and his accomplices is underway."

The Rodong Sinmun first reported Yoon's botched Dec. 3 declaration of martial law on Dec. 11, over a week after the event. This followed a week-long hiatus beginning on Dec. 5, during which the outlet refrained from covering South Korean politics, including anti-Yoon protests. The week-long pause marked a departure from its usual practice of frequently publishing negative reports about South Korea's political situation on the sixth page of the Rodong Sinmun.

North Korea's responses to South Korean political events, such as previous passages of impeachment motions at the National Assembly, have varied in timing and tone.

For instance, North Korean state media reported on the Assembly’s impeachment motion against then-President Park Geun-hye in December 2016 within four hours. State media covered the Constitutional Court's 2017 impeachment ruling against her in just two hours and 20 minutes, reporting that Park "would be under full-scale investigation as a common criminal."
