The Ministry of National Defense, where the martial law command was established, is closely watching the future impact as the atmosphere of confusion continues throughout the day.

The martial law forces headed to the National Assembly did not exert active physical force, but attention is also being paid to the active generals who commanded them, along with whether it was appropriate to enter the National Assembly.

Reporter Kim Moon-kyung reports.

The martial law army headed to the National Assembly by helicopter and vehicle immediately after President Yoon declared martial law.

Most of them, who were made up of special forces and military personnel, headed to the National Assembly, leading to physical fights everywhere.

However, during the confrontation with aides and others, martial law forces did not actively exercise their physical force.

They did not block or arrest lawmakers trying to enter the plenary hall, and some also apologized during the withdrawal process.

The basis for the martial law army to the National Assembly was decree No. 1 announced by the martial law command.

Proclamation No. 1 states that the activities of the National Assembly and local council parties and any political activities such as political associations, rallies, and protests are prohibited.

The problem is that such activities are likely to take place outside the National Assembly, and that is why martial law forces were sent only to the National Assembly.

Some are talking about the purpose of blocking the approval of lawmakers' demand for the lifting of martial law declaration, and the issue is expected to be whether the rule is specifically included in the martial law military manual or whether it was a legitimate act to prevent political party activities in advance.

In the midst of this, there are also signs that martial law has been decided without preparation.

Unlike Army Chief of Staff Park An-soo, who was in the martial law command, some executives who had been issued martial law did not even meet the command threshold and the martial law was lifted.

In particular, as the opposition party announced its plan to accuse Minister Kim Yong-hyun and Army Chief of Staff Park An-soo of rebellion, attention is being paid to the future of other high-ranking generals under their direction.
