In particular, they emphasized, "The president, who declared war on the people, announced an emergency address and declared martial law. Armored vehicles were deployed in the heart of Seoul, and armed airborne troops were sent into the National Assembly, the hall of the people's will, breaking windows of the main building and storming inside," adding, "In the 21st century, the public was outraged and shocked by scenes reminiscent of the military dictatorship era of the 1980s."

They continued, "Martial law was a means used by military dictatorships, which lacked public support, to destroy democracy in order to extend their power," and defined, "President Yoon Seok-yeol's declaration of martial law was illegal, failing to meet any conditions prescribed by the constitution and laws."

Furthermore, they stated, "The emergency martial law itself is null and void," and "It is a serious constitutional and legal violation, a grave act of rebellion, and a perfect cause for impeachment."

Accordingly, the Democratic Party declared that they will not overlook President Yoon's crimes against the constitutional order together with the people, demanding three points: ▲ President Yoon must resign immediately ▲ If President Yoon does not resign immediately, the National Assembly must promptly initiate impeachment procedures in accordance with the will of the people ▲ The Democratic Party of Korea in the Gyeonggi Provincial Assembly will fight to the end with all citizens to protect democracy and the constitutional order of the Republic of Korea.
