Kim, a retired four-star Army general and Democratic Party lawmaker, says that “impeachment alone is insufficient” to address Yoon’s shocking declaration of martial law.

South Korea's decision not to participate in what was envisioned an a moment of reconciliation highlighted the perceived lack of sincerity in Japan’s treatment of historical issues.

Lee has been found guilty of violating election law, and more cases are still pending. What does this mean for the opposition leader’s political future?

"Moving forward, the ruling and opposition parties must work together to reform and rebuild public trust, aiming for unity."

“In general, there is no public backing for South Korea’s deeper involvement in Ukraine. And this is common sense.”

The biggest political risk for Yoon Suk-yeol is none other than his wife and her many associated scandals, which Yoon refuses to investigate.  

"North Korea has vowed to shoot down any additional unmanned aerial vehicles, while the South Korean military is expected to respond should any shells enter South Korean territory."

Dr. Lee Sang-lim of Seoul National University warns that South Korea is facing an existential crisis due to alarming demographic trends.

“The shared problem is that neither country sufficiently sought to convince its citizens of the importance of its neighbor.”

“With Kim now emboldened, the prospect of unconventional acts like terrorist attacks on South Korean infrastructure and civilians is a real possibility,” says Dr. Cho Sung-min.
