2024.12.04 PM 08:44
Xinhua News Agency and other state media broke the news of Yoon Suk Yeol's declaration of martial law.

In the case of Global Times, which has a high proportion of international news, about 30 articles were poured out until the martial law was lifted early this morning.

CCTV sent a Seoul correspondent to the National Assembly to broadcast the confrontation in front of the outer gate live on the Internet.

Hong Kong media Bonghwang Satellite TV also dispatched reporters to Seoul to convey the aftermath, including a rally to condemn martial law.

On China's SNS Weibo and portal site Baidu, news on martial law topped the real-time search word list.

Relevant hashtag (#) views have exceeded 1 billion.

Keywords such as "President Yoon's impeachment" and "opposition party's accusation of rebellion" entered the top ranks during the day.

The Chinese also shared the appearance of martial law forces in the National Assembly, saying they were the real version of the movie "Seoul Spring," and the scene of an armored vehicle entering downtown Seoul.

The Chinese embassy in Korea turned around the consular notice at midnight, an hour and a half after martial law was declared.

I asked my citizens staying in Korea to refrain from going out unnecessarily and to carefully express their political views.

China considers interference in domestic affairs a taboo, but we can expect comments at the Foreign Ministry briefing.

However, today is the day when the recess was announced, so the official position seems to have to wait until tomorrow.

I'm Kang Jeonggyu of YTN in Beijing.
