Twenty-five-year-old university student Park Byeong-heon chanted slogans loudly at a rally on Sunday in downtown Seoul in support of impeached South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol. While the bulk of pro-Yoon protesters appear to be made up of retirees, young conservative men like Park have played a visible role in rallying support for the isolated Yoon. - REUTERS

00:00I realized that all the South Korean media have been lying, and that made my heart boil
00:19with anger.
00:23This is the country that we love.
00:25We have to protect it.
00:26The elderly people always say to me, actually, if we die, that's it.
00:31It's you, the young people that are in trouble.
00:34This is in fact what motivated me to participate in more of these rallies these past few days.
00:40Actually, Yoon's declaration of martial law did not cause any actual harm, including the
00:46basic rights of the people.
00:50Therefore, the charge of insurrection cannot be established, and the impeachment does not
00:55make any sense.
00:57Now the opposition Democratic Party has declared that they will exclude the charge of insurrection
01:03in the impeachment motion, and that means they know it's an unreasonable move.
