South Korea's former prosecutor-turned-president Yoon is said to be innocent in his wife's bribery and stock manipulation case through political prosecutors. However, his wife manipulated $2 million and her accomplices went to jail. Other bribery cases, political intervention, but prosecutors failed to arrest her. The people were outraged and called for impeachment, and his approval rating was 17%. Today, he announced martial law by mobilizing the military. However, martial law without the consent of the National Assembly is illegal. The military's intrusion into the National Assembly is also illegal. 190 members of the National Assembly voted in favor of lifting the ban. He is going to end up going to jail
And the Military knowing their laws, checks and balances still went ahead (I suppose they knew all that was completely illegal) still went ahead and obeyed the unlawful order. Talk about doing the right thing.
Any national leader whose wife in convicted of such a serious crime , should just step down or his own party should remove him. The public in any country are not goung to accept such a situation and believe that a leader was unaware of a spouse involved in such serious crime. And if his own party was a democratically operating party , they would get rid of him to maintain their own party viability. If they rally around him they destroy the credibility of the whole party. This can happen when corruption is widespread in a ruling party and they dont think they cannot contain the damage by sacrificing the leader. Sounds pretty ugly all round.
Exactly! They absolutely cannot answer the question without fully and embarrassingly being hypocritical. One side of their mouths is nonstop ‘Trump is friendly with North Korean dictator and that’s a travesty ‘ and the other side is ‘South Korea’s current president is terrible… for quelling a pro North Korea uprising’
Charlie D'Agata says this was explained to him as a political 'hail Mary' by the president as impeachment was coming at 3:30. Also, the video asks the question, not making the statement, "This is what led to South Korea's president declaring martial law."
it's amazing members of parliament were able to attend to parliament in the middle of the night, at moments notice even before military... Imagine this in USA, all the 80 old farts in Washington will be in bed by 9.
As far as I know, most, if not all, of 300 law-makers were in Seoul as the parliment/national assembly is currently in session to cast votes on issues such as 2025 budget, impeachments of prosecuters and government audit agency chief, etc.. So they were lodged close by. Some of them had to jump over the walls as the police and military began to deny their entry.
The fact that all 300 of them fought through everything to be there to do their duty is incredible. Them responding in such expedience probably saved their constitution. This is a warning to all democracies of how fragile government systems are. It can all come crumbling down overnight. In the end he who controls the troops always holds the real power. Everything else is just a piece of paper
Just like all the other Korean presidents. Either in jail or in grave. Should we go back and reopen the investigation for the so called suicide by Roh Moo-hyun? Everything kinda connects and pieces together. It all makes sense now. Every politician is a criminal.
@@superking100 They said the opposition was planning to impeach him for corruption. Sound like the kind of thing that would be a reason for a leader to try something to hold on to power. If they thought they might do jail time. Similar to Jan 6 in USA by Trump.

Democrats cut national budget so much government would be unfunctional, it was in his speech. I don't know why they would not show all the speech thats only about 6 minuts. That explains the reason. Korean public is not happy with democrats trying to adapt communist system so they can be untouchable. They are full of criminals and they just failed to put Democratic leader Lee Jaemyong even with evidence. That was last week and this happened.
Basically he is up to his neck in a bunch of personal and political scandals and doesnt have an effective parliamentary majority. Basically he cant govern .In a functioning democracy , he shoul step down and see if anyone else in parliament can form a government or call an election but hes trying to shutdown thd oppisition by declaring martial law which would suspend parliament and keep him power. But he blew it because the military wouldnt do what he wanted. Democracy saved ..for now. He should be inpeached as they said in the report. That means parliament investigates him and tries him. He obviously thought he could not survive such a process so he tried desparate measures. Hes worried thst he will end up in jail I guess.
In South Korea, it is business as usual. The fate of 12 of the 13 Korean President's has been to be overthrown or killed. Yes, 12 of 13. So, what we are watching is actually the norm since the end of WW2. Here is the list: 1. Rhee Syngman (1948-1960) - overthrown. 2. Yun Bo-sung (1960-1962) - overthrown. 3. Park Chung Hee (1962-1979) - killed. 4. Choi Kyu Ha (1979-1980) - removed through a military coup. 5. Chun Doo-hwan (1981-1988) - sentenced to death after his presidential term. 6. Roh Tae-woo (1988-1993) - after his presidential term, he was sentenced to 22 years in prison. 7. Kim Young Sam (1993-1998) - served in prison under President No. 3. After becoming president himself, he secured the conviction of his two predecessors. 8. Kim Dae-jung (1998-2003) - was imprisoned under President No. 3, sentenced to death under President No. 5. Pardoned. Nobel Peace Prize laureate. 9. Roh Moo-hyun (2003-2008) - impeached (overturned by the Constitutional Court). After resignation, was investigated for corruption. Committed suicide. 10. Lee Myung-bak (2008-2013) - after his presidential term, he was arrested on charges of corruption. 11. Park Geun-hye (2013-2016) - impeached. Arrested on corruption charges. Received 24 years in prison. 12. Moon Jae-in (2017-2022) - the only lucky one. 13. The current President Yoon Seok-yeol has been in power since 2022. He seems more likely to have a fate similar to the 12, rather than to the last one."

I heard the opposition leader is a plant. but im not sure , maybe he just leans left but I wouldnt go as far as him being a plant, but you never know, maybe he is.
Most of you don’t realize this was caused because the opposing party didn’t want to amend a law that would make prosecuting agents of espionage easier/doable
Thank you. This is our Orwellian system hard at work. (I only know because my in-laws are Korean. Most Koreans want martial law and thus the removal of spies.)
You’re wrong Here’s why: the executive proposal of the amendment, that you’re talking about, to the current espionage laws would make the current espionage laws even more cruel and akin to Bush’s patriot act on steroids, expanding surveillance on civilians, and cruelly treat DUAL CITIZENS, aka refugees from PROC or DPRK as enemies of the state or suspected spies… Number 2- when President Yoon clearly stated in his initial speech for martial law that he felt that the DPK was targeting his wife and his administration (which numerous government watchdogs and committees have accused them of wrongdoing) he said that as the MAIN PRETEXT for declaring martial law because they were somehow conspiring with the DPRK… the man is an idiot with zero excuses, and even his own party thought he went too far. Guess what, impeachment is now definitely on the table after this costly stunt.
Hi - you're being censored folks. I'm just trying to see if I can leave one comment without being deleted! I don't even disagree -but we're not allowed to have a conversation!

"Martial law declared in Korea" "The Democratic Party spokesman is holding back the gun of the martial law army with his bare hands." "Confirmation of magazine installation on martial law forces' firearm" Intent to fire confirmed!
This shameful. A developed country should not show this behavior. What can we say to least developed countries or developing country if in developed countries, such undemocratic behaviour takes place ? how can we lecture developing countries to uphold democracy, order and civil govt if South Korea as one of the most developed country on Earth has taken martial law ?
"close allyship" Do you mean "alliance"? Why are you coining new words when we already have perfectly good words for that thing? Oh, right, (whispering) Gen Z...(sorry).
If American presidents can start an insurrection and pardon their own son's wrongdoing, why cant the Korean president impose martial law? They learn from the best
So it just happened out of the blue? Just a simple explanation with no proof? What was that bad that Marshall law was imposed? If there is something dangerous, he should speak out.
What are their neighbors, North Korea, doing right now. They're literally helping Russia in a war against Ukraine. He is taking precautions due to this fact. Look into the treaty Russia just signed with North Korea. That's why he's doing this. And he's completely right to do so. Obviously something has occurred for him to take such drastic actions.
What role did the US play in this incident? Nothing. They didn't have to. Yoon's *self-coup* was shot down in the Assembly far before anyone from a different country could do anything about it, and that's a good thing. I'd even say that because the US had no part in this whatsoever other than cheering at our democratic institution from the fence, this whole incident can be said to have had a good ending. If things did drag on just a bit longer so that any other countries had had enough time to take any different reactions than releasing a brief official statement about the whole situation, then I'd call that situation a massive disgrace to my country's institution and the rule of law. He used to be an attorney general, and his orders were so illegal that even high school kids could have noticed something was wrong if they had studied high school law and civics for Suneung. This timeline is so dumb.
"The South Korean Parliament recently passed a law aimed at shielding the opposition leader from legal risks and ensuring his exoneration. The opposition leader is implicated in at least four corruption cases. Despite years of delays in his trials, he was recently acquitted in one case. Furthermore, prosecutors investigating these cases have been impeached by Parliament. The legislative majority is closely aligned with the leftist opposition, which has used its influence to block the presidential administration's budget, leaving it with no financial resources to operate effectively."
While in the military seen a lot of south koreans fail interm security clearance checks cause when asked if they'd fight against north korea they said no lol

"The South Korean Parliament recently passed a law aimed at shielding the opposition leader from legal risks and ensuring his exoneration. The opposition leader is implicated in at least four corruption cases. Despite years of delays in his trials, he was recently acquitted in one case. Furthermore, prosecutors investigating these cases have been impeached by Parliament. The legislative majority is closely aligned with the leftist opposition, which has used its influence to block the presidential administration's budget, leaving it with no financial resources to operate effectively."
