In South Korean law, under no circumstances, should the president revoke the legislative branch from doing its job. This also applies in the time of martial law.

He never wanted to succeed. Do you get that? He created his own dimise on purpose. He just wanted to send message. The Soldiers were ordered not to use force at all costs and did not carry any live munitions either. Not the kind of martial law that you know of.
When you border these dangerous regions, its up to the people to fight for freedom. Palestine, South Korea, Ukraine, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Finland., Ireland, Taiwan, and so on.
Because martial law was declared so out of the blue with no plausible context or any evidence to his claims, nobody knew why the heck it was invoked at all, neither did most in the Korean military and intelligence service themselves. Foreign governments would naturally be clueless and don't know what to think.
Korea have alot of history with bad presidents. There have been presidents that have been overthrown, impeached, assassinated, jailed post-presidency, sentenced to death (although later this was lowered to life sentence, then later lowered to sentence on commute/parole then he died of cancer from old age.) but there have not been a SK president who resigned yet. He MIGHT be the first SK president to resign over this.
Dw ?? Demise.. demise means death. Ig you need to use another translator for korean language.. end is not demise. End of an elected chair means its dissolution but demise means death of the person on chair. This is basic English here.

Basically, he tries to realize what he wants, not what the people want. That is liberal democracy. In fact, liberalism and democracy are often conflicting concepts. When the powerful shout for freedom, the freedom and rights of the powerless are diminished. For example, when capitalists claim freedom, the rights of workers are violated. Although he claims liberal democracy, his emphasis is not on democracy but on liberalism. He repeated the word “freedom” pathologically in his inauguration speech. To him, any act that restricts “freedom” is “communism.” He is a former prosecutor. He hates compromise and politics. He has been arbitrarily abusing the law, excluding politics and insisting on the rule of law. And he has placed his loyal followers here and there in the government who blindly follow to him well and has done absurd things. He is letting people know that “rule by law” can be a method of dictatorship. Korean citizens, who already have a high level of understanding of democratic order, have naturally felt disgusted by his unilateral actions. It was a desperate measure taken by him, who has a coercive nature, to suppress the citizens more easily. He is not the kind of person who would step down on his own, even if he were to commit suicide. Impeachment will probably follow, but its success is not certain. He will use North Korea to consolidate his power. If he instigates conflict with North Korea and creates a state of public security, it will be easier to suppress the citizens. It is the same old method that North Korea's Kim Jong-un has used to strengthen his power. The brainwashing of the old ones and the political indifference of the young ones have led to the rise of such a villain. I think that in order to block the emergence of such villains, it is necessary to give 2-3 times more weight to the votes of voters in their 30s and 40s, who are the core working class of society.
No need for impeachment when he will be defeated in a landslide in the next election. Its too late anyways because he's already caused so much damage to this country that its questionable that if Canada will ever be able to recover from it.
The people won and the dictator lost in the end. Congrat the people of South Korea!

To declare that law is one thing, to be so incapable to enforce that law is another. He wouldn't even make a capable dictator.

Actually in South Korea, if he’s found guilty of Uprising, he can be sentenced to death. It used to be a dictatorship before the 80s.
As with many English words, there are multiple meanings: "transfer of the sovereignty to a successor"
