Says because it's dawn, there aren't enough assembled at the National Assembly to make their request (for standing down martial law) official, but as soon as they have a quorum, he will do it. He has ordered the retreat of all military personnel.

Requests the cooperation of the National Assembly in matters of governance (his reason for martial law was ostensibly because the NA was thwarting his policies) That's it. He was OUT OF THERE with his tail between his legs as soon as he said like, those five sentences.

National Assembly member Cho Kuk warning the military to stand down, that with the NA invalidating martial law, they would be committing a crime if they executed martial law Announces that "when the sun comes up" they will begin impeachment proceedings—they are drafting the bill NOW

Conservative party (president's party) leader now making statement. Saying their party will do utmost to minimize the impact on Korea diplomatically and economically. Will do "what's necessary." Does not say anything specific, really a non-statement.

Conservative party NA floor leader (the chief whip? I guess?) Choo Kyung-ho. Also making a non-statement. When asked about the lack of conservative NA members present on the floor, makes excuses about the members not being able to enter because of police. (Lol cowards)
