00:00South Korea's opposition leader Lee Jae-myung vowed on Saturday to push for President Yoon
00:05Seok-yol's early exit, despite President Yoon's public apology.
00:10Ruling Party leader Han Dong-hoon stated that Yoon's early resignation is inevitable, claiming
00:16he can no longer fulfill his public duties.
00:19The biggest risk for South Korea right now is the existence of the president himself.
00:26The only way to solve this is the president's immediate resignation, or the early exit from
00:34the party due to corruption.
00:39We will do our best for the president's exit or corruption against the president.
00:45The president's normal duties are impossible, and the president's early exit is inevitable.
00:57Earlier, Yoon apologized for attempting to impose martial law, but did not resign, just
01:02hours before a planned impeachment vote.
01:05I sincerely apologize to the people of South Korea, who were very surprised and thought
01:11it was a very clumsy move.
01:15I will not avoid legal and political responsibility issues related to this impeachment vote.
01:23There will be no such thing as a second impeachment vote.
01:29I will join the party, including my resignation, to ensure the stability of the country.
01:40On Tuesday, Yoon shocked the nation by granting the military sweeping emergency powers to
01:45target anti-state forces and counter-political opposition.
