Most media outlets are expecting the impeachment of President Yoon Suk-yeol to pass. This is due to the statement issued by President Yoon on the 12th ahead of the National Assembly's impeachment vote, which included attempts to justify the martial law situation. Media outlets have criticized this statement as 'sophistry' and evaluated that the president has boarded the impeachment train of his own accord. From the ruling party, seven lawmakers have already expressed support for impeachment, and reports indicate the existence of additional anonymous supporting lawmakers, raising the likelihood of impeachment passage. Media organizations have criticized the president's statement attempting to justify the declaration of emergency martial law, analyzing that such actions are eroding public trust and further accelerating impeachment.
