South Korea’s prime minister, ruling party leaders, and presidential office advisers are set to convene an emergency meeting at 2 p.m. local time (12 a.m. ET) on Wednesday, as reported by the Korean News Agency. The meeting comes in the wake of President Yoon Suk Yeol's recent decision to retract a martial law decree, a move that sparked turmoil in the country and intensified calls for his resignation.
