Mr. Park Sang-hyun (20) said on the 14th, "The people in front of the National Assembly are united with one heart and one mind, looking toward the same goal," adding, "It's nice to feel a sense of community after a long time."

At the rally calling for President Yoon Suk-yeol's resignation in front of the National Assembly in Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, Park told Asia Economy, "Watching the '12·3 Emergency Martial Law Incident,' I realized that authoritarianism has not completely disappeared," and said, "I thought this really shouldn't be happening."

Mr. Jung Hyun-woo (24) pointed out, "Men in their 20s tend to believe they cannot be a minority," and added, "Unlike women or people with disabilities, there seems to be a perception that they don't necessarily have to raise their voices."

Jung said, "Every time people gathered after the announcement of the martial law, I talked about it. I was able to feel that this is an issue for all of us," and added, "I hope a world comes where people can assert their rights without hesitation."
