Conservative Rally in Support of President Yoon Dwarfes Left Wing Rally Against Him
Very large rallies for and against President Yoon’s impeachment took place in Seoul this weekend:
Rallies led by conservative activist pastor Jeon Kwang-hoon and the conservative Christian group Save Korea began near the Gwanghwamun area in downtown Seoul and Yeouido in western Seoul at 1 p.m. to oppose Yoon’s impeachment.
Police estimated up to 120,000 people had gathered for the two rallies.
Dozens of lawmakers from the ruling People Power Party (PPP) attended the rally in Yeouido, including Rep. Yoon Sang-hyun, who delivered a message on behalf of the impeached president on the rally stage.
“When the will and the sense of responsibility to defend freedom are lost, communist totalitarianism and populism will take its place,” the lawmaker quoted Yoon as saying. “We must fight until the end with that will and sense of responsibility.”
What is interesting is how the conservative rallies completely dwarfed what the left wing parties were able to muster in support of Yoon’s impeachment:
DP leader Rep. Lee Jae-myung was among the 18,000 people gathered for the rally near Anguk Station, where the Constitutional Court is located, according to an unofficial police estimate. The DP said some 130 lawmakers took part.
Lee denounced the PPP, claiming that those who deny constitutional order and the rule of law cannot be conservatives. (….)
At 5 p.m., another group of protesters calling for Yoon’s ouster held a rally in downtown Seoul, with about 15,000 people gathering, according to police estimate.
Participants held picket signs supporting Yoon’s impeachment and chanted, “Hurray for democracy,” and “Hurray for ending insurrection.”
So between the two left wing rallies they were able to muster 33,000 people compared to the conservative rally that had 120,000 people. For those that have followed rallies before in South Korea the turn out for the left is pretty pathetic by their standards. For example for the anti-US beef riots in 2008 drew far more than this in one rally much less two.
I think what this shows is that there is not broad support for President Yoon’s impeachment and that within the Korean left there is also not as much support for Lee Jae-myung as some believed.
Really? How many Koreans do you think belong to that cult church? Jeon, himself calls himself a messiah. Their membership runs to a million. Korea is a religious cult country, due to rampant insemination of false Christianity, unfortunately. It doesn’t take much to force their members out on the streets.
What’s really happening is that most average Koreans (who don’t have a strong bias for either left or right), who don’t belong in superstitious cults – the vast majority of Koreans, are simply tired. They’re just biding their time for the election, no need to rally as of now.
Yoon is behind bar, and he will be impeached (unless the supreme court is corrupted).
Then the elections will be held – something that the far right like this cult party cannot stop. Yoon is finished, sorry MAGA, worry about your own country that’s rapdily going down the toilet with your self-proclaimed king/dictatorship.
Vox Populi not popular with leftists. As usual.
Koreans figuring out the DPK is a pawn of the chinese communist party.
Let’s examine the cult leader, Jeon Kwang Hoon,

Considers himself above God. There’s your other Trump.
Additionally crowd estimates for both are widely incorrect the Pro-Korea/Anti-Communist rally had closer to 2 million. Chinese communist part rally had well less than 10 thousand. The police used busses to divide up the Pro-Korea rally so only one section would be counted.
I’m sure an American MAGA posting about this from Alabama knows everything about this. You should stop visiting Tara O’s websites.
“…and the fact that Jeon (who is the leader of Sarang Jeil Church) considers himself above God (to the point of making death threats against God) which is considered heresy and blasphemy in most traditional churches.”
Who wrote this? Blasphemy in “most” traditional churches? I want to check out the traditional churches where this is no problem.
“Good morning, Brother Smith, will we threaten God again this Sunday?”
“No, Brother Jones, we will discuss how Jesus died for our sins.”
“But he came back to life. So, really, he just gave up a long weekend for our sins.”
“Please don’t spoil the sermon. Have some more wine.”
In case you are wondering, KNP has noticed the pro-Yoon demonstrators are polite and follow the rules.
The anti-Yoon demonstrators flaunt the rules and attempt violence against both the other side and the police.
The media avoids reporting this nuance.
The exact same situation has been seen in America.
Much of the leftest violence in America was funded by the anti-American globalists at USaid. Trump identified this and it was his first target to shut down.
America has been amazingly peaceful as Trump burns a path of destruction through all the anti-American leftist/globalists in the Administrative State and the Deep State.
Korea needs to identify who is funding and organizing anti-Korean demonstrations, expose them, and destroy them.
We can already guess there are ties to China who wants to gain control, North Korea who encourages chaos, and the general globalists factions that do not like nationalism or independence.
Actual Pro-Korea/Pro-Yoon closer to 5.8 million people. https://x.com/zedrune17/status/1895765035886272570
