Yoon Suk Yeol Arrest, let's not fret too much.
Yoon Suk Yeol Arrest, let's not fret too much.
I don't think Yoon Suk Yeol intended it, but I think this Yoon Suk Yeol will be an important milestone in our modern history in many ways, even though it's too early to make a historical assessment.
Above all, the Yoon Suk Yeol showed that the mainstream of this society is still Chun Doo-hwan's remnants, and that the ruling party is now Chun Doo-hwan's Democratic Justice Party. The spiritual genealogy of national power goes back to the pro-Japanese collaborators before the Liberal Party - let me be clear - but identity in the legal sense begins with the Democratic Justice Party. At the time of Park Geun Hye's impeachment, there was a saying that the party's objects were labeled "Democratic Justice Party." There have been several changes in the way of merger under commercial law, but everyone who is interested in the economy knows. It means that the corporation before and after the merger has legally the same rights and obligations. That's why the trust of the Democratic Justice Party remains as the property of national power.
In short, the villain groups in the "Spring of Seoul" are national powers.
However, by changing the party name and absorbing other parties, the national power has been continuously erased, and as a result, it is surprising that few people remember that they are the Democratic Justice Party. Their frequent change of party name is ridiculed, but that really has worked.
Yoon Suk Yeol overturned their long efforts at once. We all saw clearly with this civil war that they were essentially the remnants of Chun Doo-hwan. So the question of whether or not they supported Chun Doo-hwan's remnants was whether or not they still supported him.
And I think today's Yoon Suk Yeol arrest scene has important historical significance.
There is one thing we failed to do in the process of democratization in our country. It is to physically bring down the dictator. Syngman Rhee stepped down with his own feet, and Park Chung-hee was killed. Chun Doo-hwan and Park Geun Hye also walked out with their own feet. Not all were drawn directly by the people's hands.
However, it finally made the appearance of Yoon Suk Yeol being dragged out like that. It is very much the way of Korean democracy, which is being dragged out through the means of law enforcement according to the Constitution and laws. I think this is a historical scene that symbolizes the democracy of the Republic of Korea, not such a bleeding process as we have seen in France and other countries, but a legal law enforcement agency supported by the people physically overpower and draw out the insurrection forces. I think the civil revolution will probably remain in world history, consisting of candles, cheering sticks, and K-pop.
So, let's take it easy and watch the police and the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, who are striving to extract Yoon Suk Yeol. How will the uprising of the Democratic Justice Party end? I hope you enjoy it calmly.
