SOUTH KOREANS TURN OUT IN RECORD NUMBERS FOR EARLY VOTING IN PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION

South Koreans began turning out in record numbers for early voting on Thursday in the country’s snap presidential polls set to take place next week, election commission data showed, as both of the leading candidates cast their ballots.
The June 3 election comes after months of political turmoil and a power vacuum following the botched attempt by former leader Yoon Suk Yeol to impose martial law.
