It’s refreshing to see how protective the S. Korean people are of their hard-fought democracy. Makes me wonder if Americans would gather so quickly in the middle of the night to protest. I read that civilians were lifting lawmakers over the fencing to help them get in the National Assembly to vote.

All they have to do is look to the north to see what could happen.

Supposedly their National Assembly has shifted way to the left towards socialism so that might explain why their President tried using martial law. Stupid move on his part that will backfire big time.

The thing is, here people would have to lift them over this fence if saving the country was the goal.

South Korea is a mess

Yes and no. I totally respect how many citizens of all ages and political sides are out fighting for their democracy and their country. Especially how there has been no violence at all.
