From what I understand, the military high command supported Yoon even after the assembly voted down martial law. If that's true, didn't he have everything to go through with the coup?

horse_battery_staple @lemmy.world Are you asking how Yoon could have had a better coup?

13 0 ReplyPhrygianFudge @lemmy.dbzer0.com OP He didn't really know for sure, either, I don't think. That's why it's weird to me that he just 'surrendered'. Was what happened completely legal this way? Can he not go to prison?

I meant just in case it was something like "Yoon_the_coon420" or something like that.
