Unrest in South Korea is developing quickly. In December President Yoon Suk-yeol declared a short lived martial law. He has since been impeached, removed from office and arrested after weeks of evading arrest, potentially to face charges of insurrection. The political turmoil has shaken South Korea, where Yoon Suk-yeol has popular support.
What were the events that led to this political juncture? What could it mean for South Korea and a potential election? Could the unrest have implications for the wider Asian region?
Panel:
Associate Professor Danielle Chubb (International Relations, Deakin University)
Associate Professor David Hundt (International Relations, Deakin University)
Assisstant Professor Jiye Kim (Assistant Professor (International Security, University of Queensland)
Professor Bec Strating (Director, La Trobe Asia, La Trobe University)(chair)
