South Korea faces a political crisis as opposition parties plan to impeach President Yoon Suk Yeol after his brief martial law declaration. Yoon apologized for the chaos but refused to step down, leaving his party to decide his fate. The Democratic Party demands his suspension and prosecution for alleged insurrection, alongside investigations into ex-defense officials. Massive protests outside parliament, with over 150,000 participants, amplify public anger. Prime Minister Han Duck-soo assured allies of stability amid ongoing tension. Yoon's controversial martial law, rescinded in six hours, remains a focal point of unrest in the nation.
