The South Korean Parliament may vote to repeal the martial law order.
South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol has announced the implementation of martial law, but the opposition-controlled parliament may vote to repeal the measure. The opposition Democratic Party quickly mobilized, despite the state of emergency limiting access to the National Assembly building. Democratic Party leader Lee Jae-myung urgently instructed all lawmakers to gather in the assembly hall that day. Despite the restrictions on entry and exit due to martial law, lawmakers are still striving to gather to repeal the declaration. As of 11:54 PM (Beijing time 10:54 PM), it remains unclear how many people have entered the building.
