This morning, while walking through Seoul with my Korean wife, daily life continues as usual.
Trains and financial institutions are operating normally, and distribution systems are functioning without issues.
Even before martial law was declared, “candlelight demonstrations” were frequent in the city on weekends, though most current protesters appear to be unemployed.
The political turmoil has not significantly impacted civilian life.
The situation remains peaceful.
I would like to take this opportunity to discuss South Korea – a country we think we know, but perhaps don’t fully understand.
