The opposition party to South Korea President Yoon Suk Yeol has submitted a motion to impeach him following this decision Monday to declare martial law, on the argument members of the party were "anti-state" and North Korean sympathizers. 

Shortly after Yoon declared martial law, the country's Legislature, controlled by the party opposed to Yoon, overwhelmingly rejected the move, and Yoon complied with the vote.

Hundreds of protesters took to the streets following Yoon's declaration, with some demanding Yoon resign and others calling for him to be arrested. 

Many protesters are currently marching towards Yoon's house, according to CNN.

When martial law was declared, political activities were banned and the media was subject to government monitoring.
