🚨 South Korea's political drama escalates as the main opposition Democratic Party pushes to impeach Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun. The move comes after a whirlwind 24 hours that saw President Yoon Suk-yeol declare—then abruptly revoke—emergency martial law.
💥 Why it matters: – Kim allegedly recommended martial law to President Yoon this week – Yoon announced the order in a prime-time Tuesday address – Lawmakers shot it down overnight, forcing a U-turn by dawn Wednesday
📌 This political rollercoaster highlights growing tensions between Yoon's administration and opposition lawmakers. While details remain scarce, the impeachment motion signals deepening divisions in Seoul's power circles.
🌏 Global observers are watching closely as one of Asia's largest economies navigates this stability test. With regional security challenges mounting, leadership controversies could ripple beyond the Korean Peninsula.
