On Wednesday morning, several doors to South Korea’s National Assembly were cordoned off following tense protests overnight. The protests erupted after President Yoon Suk Yeol issued a martial law order, causing chaos in the country.
By 11 a.m. local time, remnants of the protests were still visible as at least two entrances to the parliamentary building remained barricaded with furniture and blocked by tape. The clashes between protesters and authorities led to a dramatic scene as lawmakers worked swiftly to overturn the president's decree.
