Hundreds of supporters cheered as President Yoon Suk Yeol was released from jail Saturday, a day after a court canceled his arrest with detention and allowed him to stand trial without detention over his failed martial law bid.

With Yoon walking out of the Seoul Detention Center as of 5:48 p.m., about 600 supporters shouted "Yoon Suk Yeol" while clapping.

After stepping out of a security vehicle, Yoon walked toward the main gate, waved his hand and clenched his fist in response to the cheers of supporters. He bowed twice to express his gratitude.

Dressed in a dark navy suit, Yoon smiled and thanked his supporters before getting into a vehicle and heading to his official residence in central Seoul.

Upon arriving at the residence at 6:16 p.m., Yoon stepped out of the vehicle again to bow to supporters, who chanted his name.

According to police, approximately 2,000 people had gathered in front of the official residence.

At the residence, Yoon had dinner with first lady Kim Keon Hee and his senior aides, according to a presidential official. (Yonhap)
