SPECIAL EPISODE: South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol's Martial Law Disaster

Text the ATB Team! We'd love to hear from you! In this special episode of At the Boundary, we discuss the upheaval in South Korea with Dr. Jongseok Woo, Associate Professor in the University of South Florida's School of Interdisciplinary Global Studies and author of the book, "Politics in North and South Korea: Political Development, Economy and Foreign Relations."Dr. Woo discusses his belief that Yoon's long but limited experience as a prosecutor in South Korea poorly prepared him for the political maneuvering required as the president of his country. This lack of experience, Woo states in our conversation, was the primary motivation for the ill-fated declaration of martial law on December 3, 2024. We hope you enjoy this insightful conversation into one of the most shocking geopolitical situations of 2024.
