In this episode of "This Podcast is Not Real," our AI Hosts unpack the recent political turmoil in South Korea, where President Yoon Suk Yeol briefly declared martial law—a decision that sparked massive protests, impeachment motions, and calls for his resignation. With public outrage reaching a boiling point and opposition parties taking swift action, the Supreme Court now faces the task of reviewing the legality of the declaration. We explore the historical context of martial law in South Korea, the political fallout, and what this incident means for the country’s democracy moving forward.
