[Alpha Biz= Kim Jisun] Following the Constitutional Court's ruling to uphold the impeachment of President Yoon Suk-yeol, domestic IT services swiftly responded by updating information across their platforms. 

 

Naver, Daum, and other search engines changed the designation of President Yoon to "Former President" on their profiles, reflecting his loss of office. Meanwhile, related keyword search volumes surged.



According to industry reports, when searching for "Yoon Suk-yeol" on Naver, Daum, and Google, the title now shows "Former President" rather than "President." This update came shortly after the Constitutional Court’s decision at 11:22 AM on the same day, which triggered the immediate effect of his removal from office.
