Choi Kyo-jin, superintendent of Sejong City, said, "We should hold the president legally responsible for martial law."

Choi Kyo-jin, superintendent of Sejong City, said he calls for the National Assembly and the judiciary to hold everyone involved, including the president, who has regressed a democracy to a martial law state, strictly accountable for the declaration of martial law.

Superintendent Choi made this statement in an emergency statement and emphasized that it is a must for students who will lead the future of the Republic of Korea, and that it is a natural demand of educators who teach the spirit of democracy.

He also said that the process of imposing martial law should be thoroughly identified and those who participated in anti-constitutional acts should be held accountable, adding that it is an apology for democracy that has been protected by blood and the way to a better democracy.
