Lawmakers of the liberal Democratic Party (DP) have convened at the National Assembly and are awaiting a motion to lift martial law, said National Assembly Speaker Woo Won-shik, who is aligned with the DP.
Simultaneously, soldiers were seen crashing through the windows of the National Assembly's main building, attempting to break into the chamber where the session is taking place.
