Yes, it's cold weather, but there are already so many people that there is no end in sight and flags from various civic groups are fluttering.

Citizens are waving hand signs with "President Yoon's immediate arrest" and "the dissolution of the people's power."

This is only about 500m away from the Constitutional Court.


We gathered here to urge the Constitutional Court to hear the impeachment motion of President Yoon quickly and strictly.

The emergency action, consisting of 1,500 civic groups, including the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions, began the rally at 3 p.m. at the same time.

Citizens are participating in the rally in a bright atmosphere, holding cheering sticks and candles and singing K-pop songs.

On the stage, civil solidarity speeches and various performances by men and women of all ages, including teenage students, were followed, and waves were also held.
