a president on the siege of this wednesday he brought in these unprecedented powers about raising martial law as a way he says, of trying to clear i, i love job if you like, and he's presidency web. we having all of these elements, he says ranged against him, not allowing him to rule as president well see now finds after this is cited, attempted, imposing boss, or law, lifting it after only a few hours. he is very much on the seeds as never before. we've had the made opposition party, the democratic policy meeting this wednesday, calling for him to face treason charges also, his defense minister of the senior officials. and also now this wednesday afternoon, we've seen tabling this function by the opposite. the main opposition policies that by the democratic policy for his impeachment assess the fullest would remove of all of the of us if you all from the presidential office. we've even had his own policy also meeting. i'd be very much divided just about his own future,
9:06 am
calling upon his uh the for the resignation of his cabinet and questions about whether he should remain in the party or not. so uh, but this wednesdays we get up to 24 hours since imposing this. how about show law? uh, weird, very much it got questions remain just about his whole future. yes. well, that's the political island until like move always to be hearing from soft to be as large as labor union and is calling for the general strike until the president resigns. it's accusing use of fuel of implementing an irrational and anti democratic measure. here's what they've been saying to the prosecutor should arrest president, hearing charges of treason. the president does not have an unity against reason. there was no reason for him to impose martial law, so there was no evidence threat of war. therefore, he clearly violated the constitution for the plumber. last night we won. it was our victory. i speak on behalf of all the farm is young,
9:07 am
so gills raising is even more dangerous than climate change. we cannot turn a blind eye to present in you any longer. a rob treasury is that a fundamental part of life in it? so in the south korea, i'm, they have an enormous number of members. how much power do they have in all of this process? well, it's not just the trade unions. you also have various civil society groups all coming out with states. and they're all physician wanting to protect the constitution from by who they see is that this rogue presidents in the fold of you into account. and this is a society that has a very well developed culture, all street protest. we sold mass protests before. now when the people have come out to it with the displays of people, power wants you to get rid of us previous unpopular president. so just pop you and hate back in 20162017. we may well see the same again if you and so if y'all just
9:08 am
decides to fight this out and stay in office and the fact that we are hearing about a candle, it vigils being planned for this wednesday behave in the main square. and so rob, thanks very much indeed. that's what brian tell features from so there as well. president joseph jo was a public prosecutor who wants to crack down on corruption, but he's been mired in political scandals himself in january. he's dropped a bill that would have ordered an investigation into his wife. she'd been accused of stock manipulation. in july, his wife was questioned over to accepting a deal. hon bike as a gift in violation of south korean anti corruption laws. and in a tobar local media, look the phone call of a funder of upholding agency. he was boasting of his influence over the president's choice of candidates and by elections held in 2022. robin county is a professor of international relations at present national university. he says, president, june is very unlikely to keep his job. i've seen john certainly be forced to resign
9:09 am
in the next week, perhaps to. i will be shocked if you can hold on. this is a enormous breach of south 3. it's constitutional democratic norm software has been a democracy since 1987. there's really nothing like this in south korean history, even when north korea has sailed south tree and targets and things like that. there's never been a declaration of martial law if he doesn't resign, he'll be impeached. i really, i just can't see him stating office about the popular explosion. the response will be just enormous. i think, i mean unit at a top presidency at present you is that a difficult presidency. and so far as the opposition party controls has the majority in the legislature and they have been fighting himself to, to now, somewhat excessively to my mind. i think humans concerns are genuine that they've made it difficult for him to govern. most recently, on the passage of the budget and there been investigations into use wife, which apparently has affected him quite deeply. he's actually quite sensitive on
9:10 am
his point apparently, and some of his ministers and cabinet appointees. and the other of we do using the bureaucracy event. so again, i've been kind of hounded if you will, by the, by the legislature. but, you know, obviously this is, this is a vastly disproportionate response, but it looks, it looks like you're concerned for basically bureaucratic, which is kind of a shocking, shockingly, sort of minor issue, protest, declare law martial law over. but it looks like that's what it was. and i would imagine that some of these cabinet ministers, kind of cabinet officials were involved in because, i mean, you can't, we can't act on his own. so again, there's probably some kind of complicity, but that's gotta, that's going to be investigating. it's gonna be huge. the guns versus me protests you'd probably have to resign 1st. that's where a lot of the, the focus of, of the i or will be in the coming weeks that to get you in himself out of the office. if he doesn't wait in the next few days. the
