President Yoon Seok-yeol and People Power Party CEO Han Dong-hoon meet at the official residence in Hannam-dong, Yongsan, Seoul on the afternoon of the 6th. It was reported that People Power Party lawmaker Joo Jin-woo accompanied the meeting.
Previously, it was reported that President Yoon and Representative Han discussed measures to deal with the aftermath of the declaration of martial law at the Presidential Office in Yongsan on the evening of the 4th, but were unable to reach a conclusion.President Yoon is reported to have expressed his position to Representative Han and others, saying, “The declaration of martial law was only intended to warn the opposition party,” and “It was to inform the public of the Democratic Party of Korea’s violence, and I did nothing wrong.”
As recently as the 5th, Representative Han had stated that he would “work to prevent impeachment,” but changed his stance on this day. He held an unscheduled emergency Supreme Council meeting that day and said, “Yesterday, I said I would make efforts to prevent this impeachment from passing in order to prevent damage to the people and supporters due to unprepared chaos, but given the newly revealed facts, I decided to protect the Republic of Korea and its people.” “I believe it is necessary to instantly suspend President Yoon from carrying out his duties,” he said.
