Image via The Hankyoreh   Dec. 9, 2016 : With these candlelights, we the people have won!   Park Geun-hye’s presidential powers have been suspended, and   the Republic of Korea has embarked on the long journey toward   becoming a complete democratic republic once again.   Out of a total 300 lawmakers, 234 voted in favor of impeachment.   - - - - - - - - -   10th March 2017 : via Korea JoongAng Daily PARK Geun-hye became the first president in Korean history to be dismissed from office Friday ( 10th March 2017 ), as the Constitutional Court made a historic ruling upholding the National Assembly’s impeachment : “The remarks and behavior of Park regarding the allegations that led to the impeachment reveals that she does not have any will to protect the Constitution to prevent the recurrence of her legal violations, ... She betrayed the people’s trust and that is a grave violation from the perspective of protecting the Constitution. Because the negative impacts on the constitutional order of Park’s legal violations are extremely grave, the benefit of protecting the Constitution by dismissing her is overwhelmingly large.”   - - - - - - - - - "... Park’s removal carries major ramifications for Korean democracy. It is the culmination of a multi-year movement led by Korea’s liberal democracy— the opposition, the courts, the media and the civil society—to achieve, pursuant to the rule of law, an orderly and peaceful removal of an illiberal and anti-democratic president. It is Korea’s own Glorious Revolution. ..."   - S.
