“It remains to be seen what the political fallout of this brief emergency martial law will be—both domestically & internationally. But #SouthKorea has a robust history of political pluralism & is no stranger to mass protests & swift impeachments." https://t.co/Dv5K5pWVe4

[Joseph Kim @josungkim]

Yoon Suk Yeol is trying to usher in another era of dictatorial rule in South Korea. Overlaying his speech with the dictator’s of old, @mbcnews asks the South Korean public, which side of history will you stand on?

[Stimson Center @StimsonCenter]

"The PPP now faces a critical juncture: attempt to regain public trust by distancing itself from Yoon and supporting impeachment or risk...potentially look(ing) complicit in the president’s attempted coup," write experts @KaitlynTKing and @nslavney

[Natalia Slavney @nslavney]

Investigations into #YoonSukYeol's alleged corruption & mishandling of domestic issues are underway, placing pressure on his admin. The fallout may redefine #SouthKorea's political landscape for years to come. More on this from @KaitlynTKing & I here: https://t.co/29fwcVBfhA

BREAKING: Yoon impeachment motion scrapped due to lack of quorum

It's been quite the week! Check out this 🧵for more @38NorthNK & @StimsonKorea staff coverage of what's been happening in South Korea.

ICYMI: 38 North in the news on #SouthKorea President Yoon Suk Yeol's declaration of martial law and its immediate overrule by the country's parliament

[The Blue Roof @BluRoofPolitics]

With Han on board, the Dems are debating if they should vote on the impeachment bill this evening rather than waiting until Saturday.

[Natalia Slavney @nslavney]

Right now, the PPP has stated that they will not support the impeachment of Yoon. But will they stick to this line, or try to cut ties? And if LJM is toast, who is the next likely DP candidate? https://t.co/cQSeEqtXsO

[Natalia Slavney @nslavney]

A big question as Yoon's impeachment looms: Who are the front runners from the PPP and DP? Lee Jae-myung is currently appealing an indictment for 2022 election meddling. If that appeal fails, he will be banned from running in 2027, which I assume would apply to a snap election?

[Natalia Slavney @nslavney]

The third most popular party in the April election was the National Innovation Party, led by former Justice Minister Cho Kuk under the Moon Jae-in administration. This is extra spicy because Yoon was the prosecutor who forced Cho to resign.

What’s going on in #SouthKorea? We’ll look at the reasons behind the President’s attempt to impose martial law and what it shows about the state of democracy in a country that emerged from military rule in 1987. With @NeaveBarker @nslavney @darciedraudt and Prof BJ Kim

[Raphael Rashid @koryodynasty]

Democratic Party statement: "Lifting martial law won't save Yoon from insurrection charges. He has shown the nation he cannot govern. He must resign immediately".

[MJ Lee @mj_lee]

White House spokesperson on Yoon Suk Yeol lifting martial law:

“We are relieved President Yoon has reversed course on his concerning declaration of martial law and respected the ROK National Assembly’s vote to end it. Democracy is at the foundation of the US-ROK alliance..."
