The move comes after lawmakers defied the president, gathering at the parliament to vote to block his imposition of military rule.

    Jesus what a dramatic night. So what do we make of the whole situation?

    Is South Korea under imminent threat of communism and North Korea taking over democracy?

    Or did the Korean President just try to shake it up a bit so people leave his wife be?

    Or something in between?

      Honestly it’s the last one. It was a desperate attempt to keep power, it failed, President will be impeached and life will continue. Korean politics is always a little wild.

        Yeah now that the opposition parties submitted the motion to impeach the president to the National Assembly, it would be passed with ease unless Yoon does something crazy again.
