Pro-and anti-impeachment rallies continue throughout weekend

파면 뒤 첫 주말… "민주주의 승리" vs "선고 불복"

On the first weekend after the leader was removed from office, public rallies largely stayed divided.
Shin Ha-young takes a look.

Protests both in support and against the impeachment continued throughout the weekend even after Friday's final verdict.
Despite the rainy weather on Saturday, people gathered near Gwanghwamun Square in Seoul.
Those who had called for former President Yoon Suk Yeol's impeachment looked cheerful, holding signs that said, "Democracy has won."
Another rally celebrating the impeachment was held near City Hall Station.
Participants cheered, saying the people had won, and called for the removal of what they described as insurrectionist forces.

"Turning weapons on the people is unforgivable. Shouldn't those behind the rebellion, and everyone involved, be investigated and punished?"
People who opposed the president's impeachment also took to the streets.
They held signs reading "Invoking the rights to resist” and chanted, "The impeachment is a fraud and invalid".
Some said they couldn't accept the Court's decision and called for Yoon to return to office.

"We'll keep standing up for President Yoon Suk Yeol and the rule of law in the Republic of Korea."
Police set up barricades around the Gwanghwamun area to prevent clashes between people for and against the impeachment.
As of Saturday evening the Korean National Police Agency lowered Seoul's emergency response from the second highest level, which allows for 50 percent mobilization of police forces, to a level where officers are allowed to take leave, but must remain on standby and ready to respond if needed.
