Protests in South Korea's Parliament Fail to Stop Yoon Suk from Surviving First Impeachment Attempt
South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol has successfully fended off his first impeachment attempt despite widespread protests in the parliament.
The opposition-led motion, which stemmed from his controversial martial law declaration, fell short of the required votes in the National Assembly.
In this video, we break down how Yoon’s governing party, the People Power Party (PPP), played a crucial role in blocking the motion and what this means for the ongoing political turmoil in South Korea.
With protests escalating and public sentiment divided, what comes next for President Yoon?

South Korea's impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol was arrested on January 15, 2025, after a failed martial law attempt. This historic event marks the first time a sitting president in South Korea has faced arrest. The arrest follows a tense standoff with investigators who raided the presidential residence. Yoon's attempted power grab, including directing soldiers to storm Parliament, led to charges of insurrection. Despite a previous failed arrest attempt on January 3, Yoon voluntarily agreed to appear before investigators before being detained. His arrest escalates South Korea's political crisis and tensions with his supporters.
