13:04â¢The Vote That Never Was
âšThe newspapers report on the failure of President Yoon's impeachment vote in South Korea's parliament, as ruling party members boycotted the session, causing it to fall short of the required 200-vote threshold (Asahi, Chunichi, Hokkaido, Japan Times, Kyodo, Mainichi, NHK, Nikkei, Sankei, TBS, Yahoo, Yomiuri). Earlier that day, Yoon had apologized for the martial law declaration and suggested delegating decisions about his term to his party (Mainichi, Sankei).
