Wait a couple hours for the parliament to go WTF and have every member regardless of party vote to rescind the martial law order.

laughs in American
But Americans have guns so it could never happen there - right? That's the reason having hundreds of school shootings is worth it? /s
A lot of those gun owners are also boot lickers.
"We need our guns to protect our civil liberties from a tyrannical government! But if we like the tyrant in charge, then tread on us harder, daddy!"
Not every country has a reasonable legislature like South Korea. Wait, are you in South Korea right now?
Na. In Europe.
More likely what would happen here is someone will challenge the order in the courts and request a stay of order until the judge rules on weather the order is legal or not.
That is what happened during COVID when we had curfews.
. The military said they will only withdraw if Yoon orders it to end. They're ignoring parliament. Hell they blocked them from going in to vote
If Yoon stays silent for several hours after this and does not end the order, he will be going rogue as a dictator and will be continuing Martial Law in an unconstitutional and illegal status. South Korea will fall to a military dictatorship and I expect elections along with all courts to be suspended indefinitely.
This was a planned coordinated effort by military figureheads and Yoon.
To go further, if this coup is successful , it would not surprise me if in a few days, all 190 who got in to vote to end the order are either jailed or executed for "anti-state" activities.
Not talk about what I'm doing publicly. In fact, not talk about what I'm doing AT ALL.
Lol this is more of a "how are you spending your free time during martial law" question less of "are you gonna do a violent revolt" question
Oh, well, in THAT case... "Not talk about what I'm doing publicly. In fact, not talk about what I'm doing AT ALL." :)
Go over to Liz's, hole up, have a cup of tea, and wait for all this to blow over.
...I'm sorry
Staying inside with the doors locked and the curtains drawn.
Find out about it on lemmy apparently
Escape north over the bord— oh, wait…
Depends on the reason. Either stay indoors and chill or get out of the country.
Go back to bed
The same thing I do every day - hide and try really hard not to kill myself.
Depends on the reason. If's a clear and justifiable one then I'll try and help, otherwise I'll do what the authorities are requesting.
If it's NOT a clear or justifiable reason then I may have to give my old friend Thomas Jefferson a call.
Well I still have to go to work tomorrow, so I guess make sure my alarm is set.
Sleep in, really long
Toss my tool bag into my truck and drive to the customer's house I guess unless told to do something else by the authorities.
Be forbidden I guess.
Get out my nunchucks, take to the streets, and fight the system. Probably put "Calm like a bomb" by Rage on in my headphones.
"Why is that dude hitting City Hall with nunchucks?"
"He said he was fighting the system."
Why is that dude hitting the municipal water infrastructure?
He said he was fighting the cistern.
Context?
Context is South Korea is about to have another impeachment of the president for undemocratic moves like declaring martial law.
To answer that, I'd have to know what that would even entail. Our constitution does not have "martial law", we have a vaguely similar thing where it depends entirely on the circumstances what it entails and that has never been invoked.
Yoon lifted the order. Better luck next time (it's coming again). Next time he'll have them shoot anyone trespassing into parliament.
Apparently the defense minister was made aware ,(they had tanks ready) but did not go through a cabinet approval (which is constitutional law)
There needs to be explaining for this along with a potential military tribunal for those involved.
