Drones have been banned from the area, and schools, vendors and businesses have been ordered to close.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The first protests were set to start at 10 a.m. local time, ahead of a possible decision by the court that could come as early as 11 a.m. Mr. Yoon was not expected to attend the reading of the decision, which will determine whether he will be formally removed from office or returned to power.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Millions of South Koreans have protested, mostly peacefully, since Mr. Yoon briefly declared martial law on Dec. 3, plunging the nation into political upheaval and prompting lawmakers to impeach him. Mr. Yoon was <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/01\/14\/world\/asia\/south-korea-yoon-detain.html\" title=\"\">detained in January<\/a> on insurrection charges but <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/08\/world\/asia\/south-korea-president-yoon-freed.html\" title=\"\">released<\/a> unexpectedly last month after a Seoul court said his detention was procedurally flawed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Ahead of the Constitutional Court\u2019s decision, which cannot be appealed, there have been growing worries that Mr. Yoon\u2019s supporters will clash with those demanding he be removed from office. After his arrest in January, some of Mr. Yoon\u2019s supporters overran a local court, breaking windows and threatening the judge hearing his case.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The police have created a fortresslike environment outside the Constitutional Court, placing 15-foot-tall metal barriers on either side of the main avenue approaching the complex in an effort to keep the two camps from confronting each other. Between the added security gates, police have parked dozens of buses and put up smaller metal fences to deter people from occupying the area. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The police response is not without <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2017\/03\/10\/world\/asia\/south-korea-president-impeached-protests.html\" title=\"\">precedent<\/a>. In 2017, thousands of people tried to cross the police barricade near the court after it ruled that the president, Park Geun-hye, should be removed from office. At least four people died during the protests.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">On the eve of the Constitutional Court\u2019s ruling this time, South Korea\u2019s interim leader, Han Duck-soo, called on the nation to respect the decision \u201cwith calm.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div
