South Korean opposition lawmakers have announced plans to vote on impeaching President Yoon Suk Yeol this weekend. The move comes after President Yoon declared martial law, which was swiftly overruled by the National Assembly, causing widespread concern and protests.
President Yoon's martial law declaration, aimed at restricting political activities and controlling the media, lasted only six hours before being rejected by the National Assembly. The decision led to the resignation of the defense minister, who had recommended the drastic measure.
