A Seoul district court sentenced former President Yoon Suk Yeol to two years in prison on July 13, 2026, for receiving 14 free opinion polls valued at approximately 270 million won from power broker Myung Tae-kyun in exchange for a nomination promise. The conviction under the Political Funds Act marks one of eight ongoing legal cases against Yoon, who is separately appealing a life sentence for insurrection tied to his 2024 martial law declaration. The ruling differed from the acquittal of Yoon's wife on similar charges and can be appealed.
