President Yoon Suk Yeol’s Impeachment: What Martial Law Means for South Korea

South Korea in Turmoil: President Yoon Faces Impeachment Over Martial Law Declaration

The opposition parties in South Korea have launched a motion to impeach President Yoon Suk Yeol following his declaration of martial law.

The motion is largely in response to the political turmoil created by the declaration, which has sparked debates on its legality and timing.

There were physical altercations during parliamentary hearings, and the opposition accused Yoon of interfering in investigations. The motion would need a two-thirds majority in parliament to proceed.
