I went to vacation in England, they did Brexit, I went to a conference and vacation in South Korea, now they have the President declaring martial law to keep power. Where should I go on holiday next?
„SK president declares martial law due to worries about aggression from NK“ sure is a headline that sounds scary, until you read up on the background and it’s very obviously just some kind of political power move by an outgoing president who is lacking parliamentary majorities
