South Korea Political Crisis : The Supreme Court of South Korea has removed President Yoon Suk Yol from office. Four months ago, a period of political instability began after the imposition of martial law in South Korea, just a few hours after which the President announced the lifting of martial law.

What is the whole matter?
Not only the opposition but all the MPs of the country were united against Yoon Suk Yol's move of martial law. In fact, President Yoon Suk Yol did not give any clear reason for imposing martial law. He accused the opposition of being involved in anti-government activities and weakening the government.

A big blow to Yoon Suk Yeol
The Supreme Court's decision came more than three months after the National Assembly voted to impeach President Yoon Suk-yol by the opposition, removing him from office. In such a situation, South Korea may again vote to find a new president within two months.

Surveys show that Lee Jae-myung, leader of the main opposition Democratic Party, could become the next president. After the court's decision, people rallying against Yoon near the old royal palace started dancing in joy.
