[Applause] me anger outside the National Assembly in Soul protesters calling on the president to leave office his brief Fay into martial law over his political future in Peril the president's audacious move rattles these people and South Korea's democracy but it remains intact and everyone here is determined to keep it that way light I couldn't sleep very scary was very scary because we had the experience 30 40 years ago Guang you know it was a horrible things so the other helicopters floating and all the soldiers had a gun a very long gun so we just normal
