South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol is under investigation for allegedly attempting to override civilian governance by authorizing the military to use weapons against politicians in the National Assembly. According to the prosecution's report, Yoon gave orders to a general to "break down the doors and drag them out, even if it means firing the guns" in order to access the Assembly. The report also cites a 10-page indictment summary involving former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun.
The government must do its best to ensure that the people do not become anxious.
Have you still not got in? What are you doing? Break down the door and drag them out, even if it means shooting.
So quickly get inside the National Assembly and bring out the people inside the chamber, and break down the doors with an axe if necessary and drag everyone out.
