"I will fight till the end to protect this country together with you," he said in the letter, a photo capture of which was sent to Reuters by Mr Seok Dong-hyeon, a lawyer advising him.
The opposition Democratic Party, which has majority control of Parliament and led the impeachment of Mr Yoon on Dec 14, said the letter proved he was delusional and remains committed to complete his "insurrection".
