South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol faces a potential second impeachment motion after declaring martial law, which has spurred nationwide protests and economic uncertainty.
Yoon's defiant stance in his recent address underscores his intention to resist impeachment efforts, asserting, 'Whether they impeach me or investigate me, I will stand firm.'
For the current impeachment motion to pass, it requires at least 200 votes in South Korea's National Assembly, which is a two-thirds majority of its 300 seats.
If impeached, Yoon's presidential powers would be suspended, with the prime minister stepping in as acting president while the constitutional process unfolds.
