South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol has accepted Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun's resignation following a chaotic 24-hour martial law proposal that sent shockwaves through the nation. 🛑 The move comes after Kim reportedly urged Yoon to declare emergency measures this week, sparking fierce backlash in parliament before being scrapped.
💼 "I take full responsibility," Kim stated Wednesday, apologizing for the turmoil caused by the short-lived military proposal. His replacement? Choi Byung-hyuk, a seasoned army general currently serving as ambassador to Saudi Arabia, now tasked with restoring stability.
📉 The political drama unfolded like a K-drama plot twist: emergency measures enacted Tuesday night, repealed by Wednesday morning after lawmakers rejected the move. Analysts say the leadership shuffle highlights growing tensions in Seoul's corridors of power.
