Why South Korean politician blocked gun of martial law troops amid 'fear': Video
An Gwi-ryeong, a spokeswoman for South Korea's main opposition Democratic Party, recently shared her experience of fear during a tense standoff with a soldier. This incident occurred amid President Yoon Suk Yeol's attempt to impose martial law, which was the first such attempt in over four decades. An, a former TV anchor, tried to seize a soldier's rifle during the confrontation, asking him, "Aren't you ashamed of yourself?" Her actions quickly went viral, with many praising her bravery. She told AFP that the fear she felt was outweighed by her belief in defending democracy.
