President Yoon Suk-yeol escaped impeachment over his brief declaration of martial law, after lawmakers from his ruling party boycotted a vote despite huge protests outside parliament.
Yoon stunned the nation and the international community on Tuesday night by suspending civilian rule and sending troops to parliament, but was forced into a U-turn after lawmakers nixed his decree.
