Unrest will continue over the coming days in South Korea following the declaration and subsequent nullification of martial law.

Incident Details

Unrest will continue in the coming days, even as the South Korean Parliament voted to nullify President Yeol’s martial law declaration on December 3. Unrest will continue throughout the country, and clashes between protesters and authorities are almost certain. The declaration of martial law was announced amid protests demanding Yeol’s resignation from the presidency. The situation in the country may change with short notice. 

Traveler Safety

Travelers should avoid inbound travel to South Korea until at least December 5. Do not engage with protesters, and follow all instructions made by authorities. Monitor local media closely as the situation is constantly evolving.
