TL;DR Summary

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol has vowed to "fight to the end" against what he calls "anti-state forces" after his failed attempt to impose martial law, which has led to calls for his impeachment. The leader of Yoon's conservative People Power party, Han Dong-hoon, indicated that impeachment is the only option left to protect the country's democracy, as Yoon refused to resign. The National Assembly is expected to vote on the impeachment motion, which requires a two-thirds majority to pass. If successful, the Constitutional Court will decide on the matter, with Yoon suspended from duties in the interim.
