1. This is definitely an attmpted coup d'etat. Yoon should go to prison for the rest of his life. 2. Allowing state media (Yonhap) to report on your crimes is not coup d'etat best practice. Yoon is a fool.

As Yonhap and many others have reported, 190 (out of 300) members have *already* voted to lift martial law, declaring it "invalid" (무효). If respected, the president must now follow through on the motion.

The immediate concern is whether such activities can convene. As of posting, martial law is being imposed and political activities, including those of the National Assembly, are prohibited from taking place. Unclear what, exactly, happens next.

#SouthKorea 🇰🇷: Korean military forces are taking up positions in the National Assembly building in #Seoul, following the declaration of martial law by president Yoon. Scenes like this would be unthinkable in a healthy democracy like ROK, yet this is what we are watching.
