[Breaking News] President Yoon “declares emergency martial law”
On Tuesday, December 3, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol declared an “emergency martial law” via a televised briefing, promising to “eradicate pro-North Korean forces and protect the constitutional democratic order.” He accused his country’s “opposition of controlling the parliament,” “sympathizing” with North Korea, and immobilizing the government through anti-state actions.
President Yoon’s approval rating plunged recently. Since assuming office in 2022, he has struggled to advance his agenda in the face of an opposition-controlled parliament. His conservative People Power Party has been at a standstill with the liberal opposition Democratic Party over 2025’s budget bill. Additionally, President Yoon has constantly rejected calls for independent investigations into scandals concerning his wife and senior officials, causing harsh criticism from his opponents.
Reportedly, the Democratic Party has called an emergency meeting of its lawmakers following Yoon’s announcement. Additionally, 192/300 assembly votes will be needed to lift the martial law. Since the Democratic Party controls 170 seats, it’s probable it will be lifted soon. cr koreaboo
