South Korea's constitutional court begins impeachment trial process for President Yoon Suk Yeol .

He was suspended for declaring martial law and plunging country into political turmoil.

MPs voted to impeach Yoon last Saturday , sparking widespread protests calling for him to step down.

The court has six months to decide whether to remove Yoon or reinstate him.

It is unclear if Yoon will take the stand himself during the trial.
