They accuse Yoon Suk Yeol's president of being responsible for the martial law incident.

There is also criticism of Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun, who is known to have proposed martial law.

In the middle of the session, he is conducting free speech by explaining why he gathered in front of the National Assembly last night.

Three progressive parties, including the Justice Party, and civic groups, including candlelight vigils, also held a press conference in front of the National Assembly, demanding the resignation and punishment of President Yoon Suk Yeol.

Police are preparing protesters in case of emergency, with citizens on the sidewalk re-occupying the road in front of the National Assembly.

In addition, access to the National Assembly is strictly controlled, and after checking the identity of aides and employees of the National Assembly, they are sent in.

It's a chaotic Wednesday morning.

There were also some clashes as the police moved the citizens who were rallying on the road to India?

[Reporter]
Many citizens have gathered here since the President of Yoon Suk Yeol declared emergency martial law as of 11 p.m. last night in front of the National Assembly.

According to an unofficial police estimate, more than 4,000 citizens gathered.

Until the morning, about 100 citizens gathered on the road and continued to protest overnight to condemn President Yoon.

However, from around 7 a.m., police began moving protesters onto the road, citing traffic to work.

Citizens protested strongly, saying that they were forced to disband.

As they sat down or lay down to resist, police were forced to pull them out or lift their limbs and move them onto the sidewalk.

The reporters also watched the situation, and after communicating with the vehicle first, the vehicle was entering, so they ordered citizens to move on the sidewalk, and even got into a physical fight with citizens who couldn't understand it.
