Following Yoon’s announcement, South Korea’s military proclaimed that parliament and other political gatherings that could cause “social confusion” would be suspended, South Korea’s Yonhap news agency said.
So in other words the military were in on the coup?
So President Yoon argues he had to do it because they’ve impeached 22 government workers to take, and plan to impeach 10 more?
I know he said it was unprecedented globally to impeach so many, but were they legitimate?
I can't find a list of the workers they impeached but it looks like he was stacking the government with New Right folks who wanted to take Korea back to 1940 when it was a part of the Japanese Empire. Seems like a wild take. The impeachments came after a major change in the parliamentary makeup shifted power away from him drastically.
