It seems I've also been placed on leave, just like the rest of my VOA colleagues.

Truth is, I can't know for sure, because when I woke up this morning in Seoul, I'd already been locked out of all VOA-related systems and accounts.

Despite championing "freedom" 39 times in a recent speech, Yoon's decision marked a disturbing trend.

But the response from key players has been strikingly muted.
