The rallies come amidst heated public discourse over President Yoon's impeachment. On the 7th, nationwide protests for and against impeachment were held after the National Assembly failed to pass the impeachment motion. Out of 300 lawmakers, only 195 participated in the vote, falling short of the 200 votes required for approval.
The second vote on the impeachment motion is scheduled for the 14th. With tens of thousands expected to gather outside the National Assembly, public attention remains focused on the ongoing political situation.
