In reaction, the main opposition Democratic Party called for an emergency meeting, and thousands took to the streets to protest the statement. Yoon faced, and survived, an impeachment attempt on December 7. Kim Yong Hyun, the former defense minister, is formally arrested over his alleged collusion with Yoon and others in imposing martial law.Yoon defends his martial law decree as an act of governance and denies rebellion charges, vowing to “fight to the end” in the face of attempts to impeach him. On December 12, Yoon defended his martial law decree as an act of governance and denies rebellion charges, vowing to “fight to the end” in the face of attempts to impeach him. Following this outburst, South Korea’s National Assembly votes 204-85 to impeach Yoon on Dec 14.One step forward:&nbsp;Yoon says he will “never give up” and calls for officials to maintain stability in government functions during what he described as a “temporary” pause of his presidency. With his powers suspended, his fate now lies with the Constitutional Court, which must decide whether to formally remove him from office or reinstate him.Furthermore:&nbsp;The leader of Yoon’s ruling People Power party, Han Dong-hoon, resigned on Monday, saying his position had become untenable after he decided to support Yoon’s impeachment at the weekend.
