Please tell me the result of the vote in detail.

[Reporter]
With all 300 lawmakers in attendance, there were 204 votes in favor of 'Ga'.

More than two-thirds of the registered lawmakers, or more than 200, agreed to pass the impeachment bill.

The rejection is 85 votes, 3 abstentions, and 8 invalid votes.

Assuming that all pan-nights voted in favor, there are 108 lawmakers belonging to the People's Power based on the party's rejection.

At least 12 votes have left, and if you add abstention and invalid votes, it can be said that up to 23 votes have left.

This is more than the seven lawmakers who publicly expressed their support for impeachment, including Ahn Cheol Soo, Kim Ye-ji, Kim Sang-wook, Cho Kyung-tae, Kim Jae-sup, Jin Jong-oh, and Han Ji-ah.

This means that there were many lawmakers who voted for their conviction at the polling place as it was an anonymous vote.

Why did the ruling party participate in the vote, unlike in the first round of voting last week?

[Reporter]
As you said, in the voting on the 7th, the ruling party chose not to participate in the vote to prevent possible departure votes.

Since then, even within the party, there have been voices saying it was "not to the extent" and it seems that it is a considerable burden to face the backlash of public opinion again due to the absence of the vote.

In the wake of the president's additional statement, the atmosphere within the party has changed, and in particular, the increase in the number of lawmakers openly expressing their approval for impeachment is also considered to have been a major factor.

In fact, at the general meeting of lawmakers held before today's vote, it was found that the opposition to the impeachment bill mainly persuaded the pros.

The ruling party has not yet made an official position, and continues to hold a general meeting of lawmakers immediately after the plenary session.Rep. Kim Sang-wook, who has been protesting for impeachment

, told reporters at the National Assembly that an unqualified president came down and said he was sorry as a member of the ruling party.

Rep. Kim Ki-hyun, who was an opposition to impeachment, said on social media that the misfortune of the Republic of Korea has begun again, and that he would reorganize it into a healthy conservative party.

Following the public proposal to make "pro-impeachment" the party's theory, Han, who emphasized that only the country and the people should see it today, is still watching the situation in the representative office without an official statement.

What is the reaction of the opposition party to the impeachment motion?

[Reporter]
The results of the vote came out and cheers erupted in front of the main assembly hall, centered on opposition aides,

The people and democracy victory' is the position.

The Democratic Party held a press conference shortly after the plenary session.

Floor leader Park Chan-dae said at the meeting that something unimaginable has happened in the past 10 days, and that he will even draw a citation from the Constitutional Court for impeachment.

At the same time, he stressed that the rebellion is not over yet, and that the guard should not be lowered until punishment is made.

The New Reform Party also said in a statement that President Yoon Suk Yeol now hopes to achieve his impure intention to incite some people and quietly self-reflect until a constitutional court sentence.
