- South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol survived an impeachment vote in parliament on Saturday prompted by his short-lived attempt to impose martial law.

- South Korea's main opposition party will try again on December 14 to impeach the president, its leader Lee Jae-myung said Sunday.

- Yoon declared emergency martial law Tuesday night, claiming to eradicate "anti-state" forces and uphold free constitutional order, marking the first martial law declaration since the country's military dictatorship ended in the late 1980s.
