Yoon Faces Resignation Demands Amid Impeachment Vote Preparations. South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol faces growing calls to resign after his failed attempt to impose martial law with parliament preparing to vote on his impeachment this Saturday. Protests in Seoul have entered a second day, while police confirm Yoon is under investigation for “insurrection”. The motion requires at least eight members of Yoon’s own party to pass. The crisis erupted Tuesday night when Yoon declared martial law, citing threats from North Korea and "anti-state forces”. However, the move appeared tied to domestic political struggles, including low approval ratings and corruption claims. Within six hours, parliament overturned the declaration as lawmakers scaled barricades to convene. Public outrage continues to fuel anti-Yoon protests, which are expected to grow larger, while smaller pro-Yoon rallies have also emerged. The president has remained silent since rescinding the decree on Wednesday.
