That's what he said when he argued before the court that is to decide whether he should continue to be detained.
When Yoon Suk-Yeol was arrested on Wednesday, he referred to his right to remain silent. However, according to Yoon's lawyers, he spoke for about 40 minutes before the judge during the nearly five-hour-long hearing behind closed doors.
Yoon's lawyers are demanding that he be released, as they believe that the arrest of the former president was based on an invalid arrest warrant. However, the district court in Seoul has rejected the lawyers' request.
The 64-year-old former prosecutor Yoon is being investigated, along with several other political and government leaders, for attempting to stage a coup.
