      @@rhy45bianchi31not really a good comment since he said the martial law, (which he had the power to invoke, and the parliament had the power to revoke, which he then lifted) is legal and constitutional. he claimed the reason was to protect from north korean sympathetic forces. it is not impossible that north korea had a long con gameplan to get their people into office and take over south korea. if that is the case his martial law order is probably necessary. It may even be necessary to continue a special operation to capture. north korean spies within south korean government. if north korea were to take over the south its dangerous fpr the entire world.

    As a Korean, sharing some context
    President Yoon, a former prosecutor general,
    leveraged his control over the prosecution in an
    attempt to politically eliminate the opposition
    party leader, who commands a two-thirds
    majority in Congress. However, his efforts
    failed, leaving him increasingly isolated, In a
    last-ditch attempt to retain power, he
    resorted to declaring martial law,
    This drastic measure also aimed to deflect
    attention from mounting corruption scandals
    involving himself, his family, and his inner circle,
    Allegations include the First Lady's bribery
    (luxury handbags and etc), stock manipulation,
    land speculation, the suppression of
    investigations into drug smuggling and more.

      Also, dont forget the said opposition leader makes Yoon's corruption look like child's play in comparison, which is why Yoon was able to beat him in election in the first place. He killed more than 7 people to cover up his tracks, and should be in jail instead of parading as a hero against Yoon's martial law. Its wild that Lee is still the opposition party leader

    you guys obviously don't know much about SK other than what you hear on TV. The country has a long history of martial law, coups, consecutive presidents being impeached and sent to jail one after another, military junta lead governments, right wing dictators, dissidents being rounded up by the military at night never to be heard of again. They are basically the Thailand, Pakistan and Turkey of North East Asia. The country is ungovernable.
    A few years ago they had consecutive presidents being impeached and sent to jail one after another. They even sent one of the princes of the Samsung family to jail. Watch this president being impeached and him and his wife ending up in jail. The next president after him is going to have the same fate too.
    That is SK, a very developed country that looks really well maintained and stable in the surface but is very unstable and very unpredictable.
    This is what happens when you have a country that had almost 1000 years of monarchy while being run by a merit based civil servant administration and then you switch to a political system of liberal democracy where leaders get chosen by the people through a popularity contest.

      But all those incidents unlike in Thailand, Turkey, Parkistan happend more than 40 years ago except the impeachment and imprisonment of former presidents. And the impeachment and legal punishments of the past presidents all took place without any violence or significant political instability. I think that's more of a sign of political and institutional stability

    I am sad that the world seems to have taken the peace and prosperity brought by democracy for granted, not even 100 years after people around the world united to defeat authoritarianism in WWII. You’d think that the huge difference in prosperity and human flourishing between the two Koreas would be the best example of why democracy is the best form of government we’ve found so far.
    I hope martial law is revoked and the rights of all Korean citizens are restored, including the right to hold former leaders to account for their corruption in the justice system.

    • @kennarajora6532

      I'm sorry but this comment's really pushing my buttons the wrong way.
      "I am sad that the world seems to have taken the peace and prosperity brought by democracy for granted"
      The 'world'? What world are you referring to? Most of the world is still undemocratic. They never took anything for granted.
      "100 years after people around the world united to defeat authoritarianism in WWII"
      80 years not 100 and it wasn't against authoritarianism, it was against fascism, which is a strain of authoritarianism but they aren't the same thing. Fascism combined authoritarianism with militarism, social conservatism, ultranationalism, capitalism with state-interventionism, strong man leadership and an ideology which believes in a national social hierarchy (among other things). It's usually also territorially expansionist and seeks to invade other nations. WWII wasn't fought against authoritarianism because a lot of the allies at the time were authoritarian (the Soviet Union was an authoritarian dictatorship under Stalin, China was too but under Chiang, some of the other allies were monarchies, etc).
      "You’d think that the huge difference in prosperity and human flourishing between the two Koreas would be the best example of why democracy is the best form of government we’ve found so far."
      South Korea's economic boom started in the 80s when it was still a military dictatorship under Chun. Democratisation occurred after the economy flourished, not the other way around.
      South Korea isn't in this situation because the people could no longer see how great democracy is, it's in this situation because some guy appears to want to get out of the consequences of his own bad leadership.
      "I hope martial law is revoked and the rights of all Korean citizens are restored, including the right to hold former leaders to account for their corruption in the justice system. "
      That I agree with.
