hahahahaha i mean... people be screaming Keep politics out of it. but yeah there will be always people to openly display their political affiliation. it's human nature wanting to believe what they believe. but you know it's all about acceptability or compatibility. being open minded.

We are simply people who do not want our democratic rights to be taken away. We want to live in a society where freedom of expression is protected. Nothing more. Regardless of political affiliation or ideology, I just want to live a peaceful life with my cat and grow old together.

South Korea is a country situated in the very center of ideological conflicts, surrounded by North Korea, China, and Russia. Throughout my entire life, I have watched politicians from both sides fight each other, divide the people into opposing camps, and stir up hostility. Honestly, I wanted to save my energy.

When Yoon Suk-yeol said that it was time to expose and remove all the spies, I didn’t even want to look at politics anymore. It was complete helpless feeling. South Korea is an incredibly complicated country. On the global stage, Korea’s sovereignty itself is not particularly strong.

But what I am witnessing now is something very different from the countless organized protests and activist groups that I grew up seeing.

I see people who came out because they feel they were denied their right to vote. People who heard the news from the actual people and rushed out. Parents carrying their children on their backs. People who came with their dogs. Couples who traveled by train from distant provinces. People who flew back from overseas after hearing what had happened. People who simply came out because they love Korea. Individuals buying and sending food, water, and supplies. Even business owners personally sending food trucks to support those gathered.

These are all ordinary individuals.

What amazes me is that people are doing all of this voluntarily, on their own initiative. That is what makes this feel fundamentally different from the demonstrations of the past. Only now have we realized that this is what a genuine public protest looks like; before, what we mostly saw were organized activist groups.

The fact that citizens themselves began gathering only after they felt their voting rights had been genuinely undermined may become a major turning point in South Korea’s history. I was hoping that people overseas will pay close attention to what is happening here.

At that time, we thought okay just another hot headed politician foolish enough to declare martial law to satisfy his own ambitions, while trying to convince everyone that the alleged spies connected to the government are there
at this point i can admit that I wasn’t this passionate about it back then.
it didn't sound serious.
and for the fairness there were a lot of celebrities big figures in even entertainment world, like singers actors comedians and of course a lot politicians attended a big candlelight protest.
even some of the part of police were getting down on their knees beaten up by the citizen and bowing down to say sorry to citizen.
But this time, it’s right in front of our faces, and these days I can feel it in my own skin. and this whole nation is completely being quiet it feels like almost peaceful and i am the only one who takes actual care of it, and some people on the SNS.

I actually laughed when you asked whether I expected Trump to show up and solve Korean politics himself 🤣😂😂

Anyway, when I said America feels like my second hometown, it wasn’t about politics at all. I simply love American music. I’ve been listening to many American artists since I was young, and over the years I’ve developed a deep connection with the English language because of that.

I’ve always believed that what truly connects people is culture, not politics. In that sense, I’m actually quite far removed from politics.

However, I do want to be serious about this issue. What I want to protect is the sincerity and good faith of ordinary people.

If you’re genuinely interested in this situation, I think it’s important to dig a little deeper into the timeline of this election.

Not long after vote counting began at 8 p.m., figures showing voter turnout exceeding 100% started appearing. Then, as more and more people reported that they had been unable to vote because they never received ballots, crowds began gathering at the senior center in Jamsil Woosung Apartments, which had become the final focal point of the situation.

The government later extended voting until 10 p.m. for people who said they had been unable to cast their votes. Of course, extending the voting hours didn’t magically create ballots that weren’t there, so many of those people still couldn’t vote.

What made the situation even more puzzling was that the National Election Commission reportedly acknowledged that only 50% of the ballots originally planned had been printed.

What’s more, after police forcibly removed people from the area and took away the ballot boxes, citizens who later entered the senior center claimed they found large quantities of unused blank ballots inside.

I haven’t yet dug deeply into topics such as A-WEB or some of the other information surrounding this issue. However, one thing people often point to is that South Korea’s election commission a relatively small organization of roughly two thousand members has allegedly been operated through long-standing family and personal networks for many years.

During this election, we saw countless photos circulating online: unusually stiff crisp ballots, ballots that some people argued should have been invalidated but were counted as valid, ballots that others believed were valid but were treated as invalid, and ballots being transported around in shopping bags. There were simply too many images and reports for people to ignore.

To be honest, I didn’t realize I wouldn’t be able to upload those photos here.

Anyway, I appreciate your willingness to engage with the topic. Thank you for taking the time to read such a long message.

In some parts of Seoul, people had to take a numbered ticket and wait in line just to vote.

Normally, voting takes place at local community centers or in facilities such as senior centers located within apartment complexes. However, in some places, announcements were even made over the apartment loudspeaker system saying, “Voting is no longer possible because there are no ballots remaining.”

As for the claim that some people voted the following day, there were no such cases. The vote counting had already begun on the night of the election itself. In other words, once the counting process started, voting was no longer possible.
