South Korea's political crisis stems from escalating tensions since President Yoon took office in 2022. Key factors include: - Persistent deadlock between Yoon and opposition-controlled parliament - Recent 4 trillion won budget cut dispute - Opposition's attempts to impeach prosecutors investigating their leader - Declining presidential approval amid scandals - Economic challenges with weakening Korean won The martial law declaration marks a dramatic turning point for South Korea's democracy, established in the 1980s. This unprecedented move raises serious concerns about democratic institutions and regional stability, especially given South Korea's role as a key democratic ally in Asia.

Want to know more? Ask me: How might this political crisis in South Korea affect its relationships with neighboring countries and economic partners? What historical parallels can we draw between this crisis and previous political upheavals in South Korea?
