What was the story of South Korea's political developments? In early December 2024, South Korea witnessed one of its most sensitive political moments. President Yoon Seok-yeol declared martial law, accusing the Democratic Party of anti-government activities and sympathizing with North Korea. The decision, announced as a response to the political crisis and severe divisions in the country, caused widespread reactions both inside and outside South Korea. With the declaration of martial law, military forces were deployed across the country and efforts were made to control the situation. This measure was met with widespread public protests and strong opposition from opposition parties. Meanwhile, on December 4, 2024, the South Korean National Assembly passed a motion to lift martial law, emphasizing the importance of preserving democracy against authoritarian threats. This event not only increased domestic tensions, but also aroused international concerns. South Korea's allied countries and international organizations called for respect for democratic principles and the protection of civil rights. This event once again demonstrated the importance of civil society and the role of the people in preserving democracy. The declaration of martial law in South Korea showed that even in one of the most advanced democracies in Asia, political challenges and authoritarian threats can affect the stability of the country. However, the reactions of the people and civil society showed that collective will can prevent a return to authoritarianism and strengthen the path to democracy. These developments once again emphasized the importance of freedom, human rights and the role of democratic institutions in maintaining political stability and presented South Korea as an example of democratic resistance to crises.
