There are people who laugh at Korea in dictatorship and socialist countries, but you can't even protest and even if this happens, isn't it a country where the people run away, let alone counter? Such a country does not even deserve to rate Korea. And democracy in Korea never collapses.
The reason why the martial law was declared at late in the evening. If it were in the morning or daytime, he knows that people on the street, in the offices, schools, trains and busses will rush to the parliament building, city halls and streets to protest against the martial law. Do not underestimate the people's power who already know how mighty it is.
I'm Korean staying is US. This martial law from Yoon is procedurally invalid. It did not go through the State Council meeting, nor was it notified to the National Assembly, which should be done for following martial law. We have to keep our demacrocy. Please pray for us and support normal citizens in South Korea. Luckly, congress legally (50% over attending) reject martial law, which means effects were gone even though that martial law is invalid. Congress confirmed the invalidation of martial law again by their voting (100% agree to reject martial law)
As a Korean student, even I know it's unacceptable for a president to declare martial law only bc people are protesting against him and out of fear of impeachment. Everyone's confused rn.
It’s notable that North Korea and Russia have entered into a treaty, signaling shifts in global dynamics as U.S. influence appears to be waning. Given the current trajectory, it wouldn’t be surprising if North Korea turns its focus to South Korea after the situation in Ukraine. Let’s not forget, these are the outcomes shaped by collective decisions...
The Chosun Ilbo is a newspaper that supports President Yoon, and most of its articles are currently distorted. As a result, the majority of the Korean public does not trust this newspaper’s reporting. Most informed citizens do not believe the country is unstable because of the elements Choi mentioned in this interview. Instead, they are frustrated by the actions and illegality of Yoon, his wife, and his close associates, believing they are the true source of instability. I regret that the interview was conducted with the Chosun Ilbo.
@@TheRealzCyborg The constitution demands the president has to call it off if the parliament decides it. He'll pretty much be a traitor if he does not recind it. It does not look like the Korean people will accept this bullshit.
I live in Seoul, Korea. Many helicopters flew towards the National Assembly, and special forces attempted to enter the Assembly. Currently, the National Assembly has unanimously decided to lift martial law. It happened that no one actually said it was not going to happen. It's past 1 a.m. now.

@@cindymrsha665 During the presidential election, both candidates were awful. However, many people voted for the opposition party, expecting things to change because the previous administration had made so many mistakes. The decision largely came down to who they disliked less.
@@Wouenoien Stop making excuses. What mistakes from the previous administration do you mean? Yoon got voted the same way Trump won this election. Stupid people were blaming inflation (which was a worldwide trend the last time I checked) on the incumbent party, not to mention men voting based on the PPP's antifeminist rhetoric. This is what you get when you place a corrupt and inexperienced politician to lead the country. Apparently Koreans didn't learn their lesson from Park, and now we have people going out to protest for impeachment (again), just for the same people to vote for another Yoon because "both candidates were awful". It's always the same pattern, and it baffles me the number of people saying they didn't know what they were voting for. Maybe next time don't vote based on who you dislike more but what the party stands for. At the very least, not one that would nominate as their candidate a 5 year old who would rashly make decisions like, I don't know, declaring a martial law just because they feel like it.
@@Wouenoien Seems like that's how many elections are decided these days everywhere. Voting for the person and party you dislike the least and not who you like the most and believe can do the best job of running a nation.
@pacewalk7396 Not yet. But according to the korean constitution, the cabinet must hold a meeting, and the president must accept the results of the parliamentary vote. If the president refuses, it is against the constitution and could lead to impeachment for causing a national crisis.

I am a teenage Korean. In Korea, almost everyone must go to university and obtain a bachelor's degree to enter a company. And to do that, you have to study a lot in high school and do well on school exams. However, even though yesterday was the exam period for high school students, students who heard the news of martial law (including my friends) gave up studying and ran to the National Assembly to protect the place. I'm proud of them.

As an American who lived in South Korea during the 1980s, I have vivid memories of what martial law felt like. When President Chun Doo-hwan declared it, the atmosphere in the country turned instantly colder. A nationwide curfew was reimposed, and the faces of ordinary citizens betrayed a deep, unspoken fear. Now, four decades later, South Korea finds itself again confronting the specter of martial law. In 2024, President Yoon Suk-yeol made the unexpected decision to impose it around 10 p.m. Reports indicate that his approval ratings had sunk to the low teens, and with impeachment looming, he turned to this extreme measure. Echoing the rhetoric of the 1980s, Yoon justified the move as necessary to combat "anti-state forces." Former President Park Geun-hye, too, had reportedly considered martial law during her presidency, but was unable to implement it due to her impeachment. In these uncertain times, one can only hope that South Korea’s hard-won democracy will endure this latest trial.
Yoon Suk Yeol is a stupid idiot should not be elected in the first place. If Lee Jae-myung was elected in 2022, we definitely will not see this kind of BS.
Special Forces has entered parliament building. Many helicoptors appeared in the sky of Seoul. it's REal. but many people are watching youtube live broadcasts and enjoying this like watching a movie haha . People just think he has gone crazy.
Did you skip the part where they said they realized pro-communist, North Korean/Russian sleeper agents controlled 2/3 of their parliament? The same thing literally just happened to the US on November 5th. Biden also needs to declare martial law.
Hello, I am a Korean living in Korea. There is currently some incorrect information from abroad. First of all, declaring martial law in the 21st century is ridiculous. President Yoon Seok-yeol declared martial law at 10:30 last night. The justification, or reason for declaring martial law, is to eradicate North Korean spies and protect the free Republic of Korea. However, this is not right. South Korea is a country that is in great political turmoil. Naturally, the people are criticizing the reason for declaring martial law as being wrong. I am leaving this post so that there is no misunderstanding due to incorrect information. Thank you.
@@ArnieMac I was adding a little levity to this. Trump's already pulled this move. But my comments pointing out facts keep getting censored Take out the left propaganda and the politics fall.. Ever heard of Elon musk? But you won't get this comment it'll get deleted
South Korean Congress has declared the martial law is unlawful. 190 congressmen out of 300 presided and all 190 has decided that the martial law is illegal. The Congress has declared the martial law is illegal. The SK special force came and withdrew when the Congress has declared the martial law is illegal. The special force didn't even tried to stop congressmen coming into the Congress building.
Their SF have close ties with the west, so i can imagine they're not about to nullify the past decades working and training for the idea of democracy without GOOD reason could always be wrong tho
@Ekstrax There's a country in Africa, I think maybe Niger, whose troops were also trained by the West and they launched a coup against the pro western government. I think even the army's commander was former Special Forces trained by the US.
@@EkstraxNot only that, South Koreans learn about the democracy movement in history classes. They are required to learn about how South Koreans resisted the dictatorship and achieved democracy, and the special forces soldiers are no exception. They received orders, but they probably tried to do as little as possible unless they disobeyed.

No. Martial law has not been lifted yet. The National Assembly has proposed lifting martial law with 190 out of 190 members in favor, but the President has not yet stated his position. If the President does not announce the lifting of martial law and mobilizes the military, it will be the beginning of a dictatorship and a civil war. We are still tense. Thousands of citizens are gathered in front of the National Assembly at 2 a.m. right now.
Dear South Koreans, just wanna say you are absolutely on fire badass, that was insane 🔥, you've brought the world great healing and hope, thank you for fighting for freedom and justice ❤ love you 🇰🇷 from Canada also congrats for Han, can't wait to hear her speech. 💪
SK is puppet of USA. Go search SK president kissing ass and singing biden, supporting israel and ukarine. Dropping propaganda flyers to NK either by his command or USA, in return NK sent trashes.
The process of declaring martial law itself was illegal, and although the National Assembly has now lifted martial law, Yoon Suk-yeol is still holding out without officially declaring its termination. He all did this to avoid the consequences of his and his family’s crimes.
Just a suggestion: if you want, you can request Indian govt to send some elite special forces, for dismantling this coup like situation with a targeted quick operation, if there're any human rights violations happening. Time is crucial, the more you wait, the more it'll be hard to infiltrate and conduct operation and then exit safely. Take your decision asap. I think you guys have US military bases in your country. So, if you'll waste time, the US will settle into the situation properly and we wouldn't be able to do anything afterwards. So, take quick decision. Take care.
Thankfully, Impeachment is (mostly) in action from a few hours ago. He no longer have actual control on the military force due to congrass presenting agenda.
@@FrancisAbuJ i agree but still 50 times better than FOX propaganda network, they probably arent even reporting on this. They are swallowing Trump with no chaser as usual 😂

I stopped taking CNN seriously when they did a puff piece on Hasan Piker - a streamer who has broadcasted terrorist propaganda, is a terrorist sympathizer - who supports Hamas, and someone who has said "America deserved 9/11."
So this is what I'm hearing: 1) President declares martial law in the wee hours of the morning when everyone is asleep. 2) Parliament is convened, and all attending veto the martial law per S. Korean law, therefore nullifying the martial law decree. 3) Parliament also moves to start impeachment process. 4) President backs down and cancels martial law. President clearly didn't think this one through, what was the whole purpose of this??? In the end he'll be impeached, then jailed (I believe most ex-presidents of S. Korea are jailed) Again, what's the whole point??

The uproar over the declaration of martial law in Korea ended with the lifting of martial law. All members of the National Assembly present at the emergency meeting agreed to the lifting of martial law.
Wanna be dictators take this warning Democracy isn’t just going to lay down and roll over.Good for South Korea my father fought to keep them free during Korean War.
So freaking damn embarrassed as a Korean man. This is unacceptable. We should have more steps and safety valves not for the President to declare Martial Law so easily like this again. What on earth was he thinking?
Don’t be embarrassed. If people wanna judge you, your people and your country they can **** off 😂. Us Americans love Korea, ROK provides so much to this world. ROK will get through this
A lot of people might not realize, but the next five years are crucial for South Korea. If the next president is from the opposite party, South Korea will be in for rude awakening.
Not a single martial law has been declared since the end of the military regime in South Korea in the late 20th century and the people regained their freedom with the establishment of a democratic government. This is insane.
A surprising fact is that although martial law was declared, the elite soldiers deployed to the National Assembly did not respond aggressively. This shows that even the soldiers recognized that this situation was wrong.

Considering the Chosun Ilbo editor she interviewed is an extremely right wing, anti communist newspaper in Korea. Kind of like CNN interviewing someone from Fox. Says a lot how surprised everyone is.
That makes sense why they interviewed him, though. At least according to this clip, the CNN reporters didn’t understand WHY the SK president declared this martial law. The editor was able to clarify why he thinks this decision happened, which sheds a lot more light on the president’s thinking. Obviously the country doesn’t agree with the president’s decision, but now we as outsiders can begin to understand a “why,” and even that should make fighting it more manageable 🤞🏻

According to Article 77, Clause 5 of the South Korean Constitution, the content is as follows: Article 77 (Martial Law), Clause 5: “When martial law is declared, the President must report it to the National Assembly without delay, and if the National Assembly demands the lifting of martial law, the President must comply.” This clause regulates the authority of the President and the role of the National Assembly concerning the declaration of martial law. It is designed to prevent the abuse of martial law and ensure democratic governance.
I guess we will find out if south korean are organized and ready to defend their democracy.. the cituation seems disturbing , hope this is not a trojan horse from the north
Quick update from South Korea: when martial law was declared, President Yoon sent five troops to the Central Election Office, which oversees general and presidential elections. This unit operates independently; even the Attorney General cannot interfere with this part of the government. The only way the president can intervene is under martial law. This explains why martial law was rescinded just 6 hours after it was declared. Yoon sent only one troop to the parliament (which many people believe was just for show), but five times more were dispatched to the Central Election Office. Sources report that they secured the server and ransacked the place. It’s important to note that a significant majority of the Korean parliament are members of liberal parties, who oppose President Yoon (a conservative president). They have been planning to impeach Yoon, especially since the general election was held in April. We'll soon find out whether the members of the parliament were legally or illegally elected last April. Mainstream media is only showing one side of the story. To be continued...
They need to get enough members into the national assembly so they can revoke the Martial Law declared by the President. He's trying to pull a Donald Trump.

hello i'm korea Hello, global citizens, I am a young Korean living in South Korea. I feel deeply ashamed that our country has drawn global attention due to the recent misconduct of Yoon Suk-yeol and his associates. However, the people of South Korea are determined to take action once again to uphold democracy and ensure that those responsible are held accountable. Please support us as we strive to reclaim our status as a leading global nation. Thank you.
As a citizen of the Republic of Korea, I strongly condemn President Yoon Suk-yeol's unconstitutional martial law and will defend the freedom and peace of Korea.
And as a korean who holds dual citizenship of American and South Korea, this is what happens when the Korean government and any government across the world removes the power of the people. Here in America we have the right to bear arms to fight against any tyrannical government, and if any president or governor, mayor, etc tried to declare a martial law here in the US all of us armed American citizens would fight back.
Two hours after martial law was declared, the lifting of martial law was unanimously passed by the National Assembly, and it is highly likely that President Yoon will soon be impeached by the people of the Republic of Korea.
The situation already conclude, so all should be fine I guess we could expect another impeachment, because as far as I'm aware the public is outraged haha
President Yoon declared the lifting of martial law and said, "However, I ask the National Assembly to immediately stop ruthless acts that paralyze the nation's functions due to repeated impeachment, legislative manipulation, and budget manipulation." It has become clear that this martial law is not a matter of divided countries, North Korea and South Korea, but a martial law toward the people of the Republic of Korea and the National Assembly stemming from numerous issues surrounding First Lady Kim and President Yoon's own foolishness.
Johnny Somali illegally entered the Korean DMZ and violated the National Security Law. Even U.S. troops sent to Korea cannot illegally cross the DMZ. Those who shout for Johnny Somali's freedom should reflect on themselves.

It’s notable that North Korea and Russia have entered into a treaty, signaling shifts in global dynamics as U.S. influence appears to be waning. Given the current trajectory, it wouldn’t be surprising if North Korea turns its focus to South Korea after the situation in Ukraine. Let’s not forget, these are the outcomes shaped by collective decisions...
The Chosun Ilbo is a newspaper that supports President Yoon, and most of its articles are currently distorted. As a result, the majority of the Korean public does not trust this newspaper’s reporting. Most informed citizens do not believe the country is unstable because of the elements Choi mentioned in this interview. Instead, they are frustrated by the actions and illegality of Yoon, his wife, and his close associates, believing they are the true source of instability. I regret that the interview was conducted with the Chosun Ilbo.

How incompetent do you have to be to not think things through to declare martial law and only to lift it within hours.
Something for the Korean citizens to think about: How come a person like him got elected in the first place?
@@cindymrsha665 During the presidential election, both candidates were awful. However, many people voted for the opposition party, expecting things to change because the previous administration had made so many mistakes. The decision largely came down to who they disliked less.
@@Wouenoien Stop making excuses. What mistakes from the previous administration do you mean? Yoon got voted the same way Trump won this election. Stupid people were blaming inflation (which was a worldwide trend the last time I checked) on the incumbent party, not to mention men voting based on the PPP's antifeminist rhetoric. This is what you get when you place a corrupt and inexperienced politician to lead the country. Apparently Koreans didn't learn their lesson from Park, and now we have people going out to protest for impeachment (again), just for the same people to vote for another Yoon because "both candidates were awful". It's always the same pattern, and it baffles me the number of people saying they didn't know what they were voting for. Maybe next time don't vote based on who you dislike more but what the party stands for. At the very least, not one that would nominate as their candidate a 5 year old who would rashly make decisions like, I don't know, declaring a martial law just because they feel like it.

As an American who lived in South Korea during the 1980s, I have vivid memories of what martial law
felt like. When President Chun Doo-hwan declared it, the atmosphere in the country turned instantly colder. A nationwide curfew was reimposed, and the faces of ordinary citizens betrayed a deep, unspoken fear.
Now, four decades later, South Korea finds itself again confronting the specter of martial law. In 2024, President Yoon Suk-yeol made the unexpected decision to impose it around 10 p.m. Reports indicate that his approval ratings had sunk to the low teens, and with impeachment looming, he turned to this extreme measure. Echoing the rhetoric of the 1980s, Yoon justified the move as necessary to combat "anti-state forces."
Former President Park Geun-hye, too, had reportedly considered martial law during her presidency, but was unable to implement it due to her impeachment.
In these uncertain times, one can only hope that South Korea’s hard-won democracy will endure this latest trial.
청렴결백 이재명 대통령 수호🇰🇷
Yoon Suk Yeol is a stupid idiot should not be elected in the first place. If Lee Jae-myung was elected in 2022, we definitely will not see this kind of BS.

Hello, I am a Korean living in Korea. There is currently some incorrect information from abroad. First of all, declaring martial law in the 21st century is ridiculous. President Yoon Seok-yeol declared martial law at 10:30 last night. The justification, or reason for declaring martial law, is to eradicate North Korean spies and protect the free Republic of Korea. However, this is not right. South Korea is a country that is in great political turmoil. Naturally, the people are criticizing the reason for declaring martial law as being wrong. I am leaving this post so that there is no misunderstanding due to incorrect information. Thank you.

Article 77 (Martial Law), Clause 5:

This clause regulates the authority of the President and the role of the National Assembly concerning the declaration of martial law. It is designed to prevent the abuse of martial law and ensure democratic governance.

Quick update from South Korea: when martial law was declared, President Yoon sent five troops to the Central Election Office, which oversees general and presidential elections. This unit operates independently; even the Attorney General cannot interfere with this part of the government. The only way the president can intervene is under martial law. This explains why martial law was rescinded just 6 hours after it was declared. Yoon sent only one troop to the parliament (which many people believe was just for show), but five times more were dispatched to the Central Election Office. Sources report that they secured the server and ransacked the place. It’s important to note that a significant majority of the Korean parliament are members of liberal parties, who oppose President Yoon (a conservative president). They have been planning to impeach Yoon, especially since the general election was held in April. We'll soon find out whether the members of the parliament were legally or illegally elected last April. Mainstream media is only showing one side of the story. To be continued...

They need to get enough members into the national assembly so they can revoke the Martial Law declared by the President. He's trying to pull a Donald Trump.

Just a suggestion: if you want, you can request Indian govt to send some elite special forces, for dismantling this coup like situation with a targeted quick operation, if there're any human rights violations happening. Time is crucial, the more you wait, the more it'll be hard to infiltrate and conduct operation and then exit safely.
Take your decision asap.
I think you guys have US military bases in your country. So, if you'll waste time, the US will settle into the situation properly and we wouldn't be able to do anything afterwards. So, take quick decision.
Take care.

I’m Korean, and I'm super embarrassed right now. This case reminds me of 5.18 emergency. I'm really worried about future financial effect. Keep an eye on us everyone.
You guys are so cool to stand up to it though. You should be proud 🫀. Best wishes for you in the new year

민주주의는 보호되어야 합니다.
just another politician dragging his country down with him because he is being personally targeted by his opponents. selfish and self serving.
Personally targeted? Or something like asking someone to find11,780 votes on a recorded phone line to the Georgia Sec of State?? Or sending fake electors to DC?

Hello, global citizens,
I am a young Korean living in South Korea.
I feel deeply ashamed that our country has drawn global attention due to the recent misconduct of Yoon Suk-yeol and his associates.
However, the people of South Korea are determined to take action once again to uphold democracy and ensure that those responsible are held accountable. Please support us as we strive to reclaim our status as a leading global nation.
Thank you.
As a citizen of the Republic of Korea, I strongly condemn President Yoon Suk-yeol's unconstitutional martial law and will defend the freedom and peace of Korea.
And as a korean who holds dual citizenship of American and South Korea, this is what happens when the Korean government and any government across the world removes the power of the people. Here in America we have the right to bear arms to fight against any tyrannical government, and if any president or governor, mayor, etc tried to declare a martial law here in the US all of us armed American citizens would fight back.
USA Military industrial complex love this 😬
I support your opinion
May God help you
Do you think it may be possible your President has intelligence regarding a national security threat from North Korea?
This doesn’t seem like democracy
Two hours after martial law was declared, the lifting of martial law was unanimously passed by the National Assembly, and it is highly likely that President Yoon will soon be impeached by the people of the Republic of Korea.
America you are next.
Omg South Korea stay safe
Next trump will declare that 😅
God has no son.do you know Jesus is a prophet of God.
The situation already conclude, so all should be fine
I guess we could expect another impeachment, because as far as I'm aware the public is outraged haha
@@ytc257yessss
So where can we get truthful reporting?
President Yoon declared the lifting of martial law and said, "However, I ask the National Assembly to immediately stop ruthless acts that paralyze the nation's functions due to repeated impeachment, legislative manipulation, and budget manipulation." It has become clear that this martial law is not a matter of divided countries, North Korea and South Korea, but a martial law toward the people of the Republic of Korea and the National Assembly stemming from numerous issues surrounding First Lady Kim and President Yoon's own foolishness.

Johnny Somali illegally entered the Korean DMZ and violated the National Security Law. Even U.S. troops sent to Korea cannot illegally cross the DMZ. Those who shout for Johnny Somali's freedom should reflect on themselves.
