ChainCatcher news, according to Jinshi reports, South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol suddenly delivered a televised speech tonight, announcing the implementation of "emergency martial law." Yoon Suk-yeol cited multiple reasons, stating that the opposition party is colluding with the National Assembly, disrupting the country, and that he will purge the "anti-state forces" within South Korea. The specific measures of martial law are currently unknown.
Outside analysis suggests that recent legislative efforts by the opposition party targeting the president's spouse and the impeachment of public officials, including prosecutors, may be the trigger for Yoon Suk-yeol's announcement of "emergency martial law."
