Members of the main opposition Democratic Party of Korea, including Rep. Baek Hye-ryun, were hit with raw eggs Thursday morning in front of the Constitutional Court in Jongno-gu, Seoul.

The liberal party members were holding a press conference around 9 a.m. calling for the prompt dismissal of President Yoon Suk Yeol when they faced off against a group of Yoon's supporters who were rallying in support of the impeached leader.

Police have yet to confirm the identity of the person who threw eggs at Rep. Baek.
