South Korea has tolerated the 6 -month political upheaval. What can we expect in Lee’s presidency?

Seoul: The new President of South Korea, Liberal Lee J-Mung election is everything that you will expect to see in one of the most vibrant democracy in the world. peaceful. Organized. And, because it is South Korea, essentially the eyes catcher, with the crowd with the crowd, as well as the song with the c-pap, jumping into sequences closely choreographed the dancers, and the blue for the two front-colon and their supporters, a single for the colored organizations, a single for a single, a single, a single, five-five years, a single-five-five-year was revealed. What the pictures are not, is the full upheaval of the last six months, which is the most strange – and, possibly, the most important – the day when the country had emerged from the decades of dictatorship in the late 1980s when the country had emerged from the decades of dictatorship. Since 3 December, the South Korean people have seen, shocked, revealed as an extraordinary sequence of events: the then-south Korean President Yun Suk Yeol declared a martial law, which was the first since the dictatorship. In response, MPs, while fences and justling with heavy armed soldiers, hit their way in a surrounded Parliament to reduce the declaration. Yun was then impeached and removed from the office and now, exactly two months after it fell, another President took over. Lee’s victory here is a look at the shocking events establishing the election, and Lee faced challenges to divide a nation with a host of political and social mistake lines. Where do these divisions come from? In a way, they are older than the nation. The Korean peninsula was initially divided into a Soviet-supported north and in the US-supported South after World War II. States formally form the division in 1948, and the 1950–53 Korean War made it permanent, divided rivals with demilitrated zones, one of the world’s heaviest boundaries. But stress is beyond geography. During a long battle for democracy during the dictatorship of South Korea, many fractures still remain today: content between liberalists and orthodoxy, but also gaps between rich and poor, old and young and men and women. Since the end of the dictatorship, more countries in the country have tested their democracy. By his leaders. North by its opponent neighbor. One of the most breaknak economic changes in forced geographical division, war, dictatorship, and world history by each new generation response. Prior to Tuesday’s election, thousands of protesters took to the streets, both supported and condemned him. Park Suu Hyun, a 22 -year -old student, said on Wednesday, “Above these, the President should bring unity among a divided and confused public, which was due to the martial law announcement.” What can we expect from a Lee administration? Lee’s party has a majority in Parliament that will probably allow an independent hand to push the new President through liberal law, including more money to address high life costs, unemployment and corruption for welfare programs and policies. Typically, liberals such as Lee have been more careful than traditional allies from South Korea, conservatives from the United States and Japan. They often seek harmony with North Korea. The United States views South Korea as an important butt against China and Russia and North Korea’s growing nuclear capability. South hosts around 30,000 American troops. However, Lee will have to find a way to keep his generous base happy while managing relationships with us. President Donald Trump, who has threatened Seoul with tariffs and is usually humming about the importance of alliance. Lee has also been lowered from a fleet of corruption cases, and it is not yet clear how much drag will be held in his presidency. Lee said in his victory speech on Wednesday morning, referring to the martial law decree, saying, “I will make sure that there is no other military coup in which the power assigned by the people will never be used to scare people.” So is South Korea the worst or can we expect more turmoil? Experts say that this is a bit of both. In the last half years, raw divisions have already been deteriorated, even highlighted the underlying strength of a thick and tumbl democratic process. Duyon Kim, a visiting professor at Yoni University in Seoul, recently wrote to the council on foreign relations, “Fierce ideological partitions still affect politics, which may disrupt opportunities for South Korea’s really mature democracy.” But Tuesday’s vote and Wednesday’s opening indicated a return to a more general democracy. And even the crisis showed the flexibility of institutions in South Korea. A mob helped the MPs to reverse the previous soldiers and the martial law decree in the Parliament. The soldiers who carried out the orders of Yun did so without enthusiasm and did not use force against the people, John Delary, a Korean expert and a professor at John Cabot University, said on Tuesday. Korean democracy is in the hands of people, he said, not any one person, even the new President. Lee “enters the office with a strong mandate. But he is not a savior of democracy,” said delary. “The Korean people saved it themselves. Now they are handing it over to do not harm it for the next five years.”
