Falls Into Chaos As Lawmakers Overturn President Yoon Suk-yeol’s Martial Law In South Korea

Thousands of citizens gather across from the National Assembly to demand the impeachment of President Yoon Suk-yeol in Seoul, South Korea, on December 6, 2024. South Korea plunges into severe political turmoil after President Yoon declares emergency martial law, accusing the opposition Democratic Party and other parties of destabilizing governance and siding with North Korea. Although the emergency martial law is rescinded following the unanimous passage of a resolution to revoke it by 190 lawmakers, the move sparks widespread criticism, calls for President Yoon's resignation and impeachment, and heightens concerns about its implications for democracy.
