Thanks for including my @cfr.org analysis on the South Korean election in your list!

What’s behind South Korea’s progressive foreign policy’s shift toward pragmatism? @darciedraudt.bsky.social broke down a key example in her latest paper: Learn more from Darcie – just in time for South Korea’s historic election – here: carnegieendowment.org/research/202...

Lee Jae-myung emerged as the winner of this week’s election in South Korea. But questions also emerge from the country’s turbulent past few months and polarized present – and a chaotic global foreign policy landscape. @darciedraudt.bsky.social breaks it down: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlCE...

As frontrunner Lee Jae-myung gears up for South Korea's June 3 special election, his party's foreign policy has undergone a transformation from progressivism to pragmatism. @darciedraudt.bsky.social explains: carnegieendowment.org/research/202...

South Korea’s former president, Yoon Suk Yeol, was formally impeached two months ago. Now, as South Koreans head to a historic special election what’s next? @darciedraudt.bsky.social breaks it down: www.youtube.com/watch?v=yA6o...

In the latest installment of my analysis of the upcoming South Korean election, I discuss how the Trump-tariff effect has influenced security and economic debates int the upcoming South Korean election for @cfr.org on.cfr.org/3HtzNbm

Is presidential frontrunner Lee Jae-myung's swing to the center just a campaign tactic, or does it indicate a new direction for South Korea’s foreign policy? @darciedraudt.bsky.social unpacks the present – and future – implications in her latest for Emissary: carnegieendowment.org/emissary/202...

Been doing a lot of thinking about what Lee Jae-myung means for Korean politics. I'll be sharing a longer report next week, but my analysis of Lee's "right-clicking" is up @carnegieendowment.org now: carnegieendowment.org/emissary/202...

On Monday 5/19 at KEI in Washington, I'll be sharing some of the findings of my paper "Beyond the Demographic Cliff: Economic Adaptation in Hyper-Aged Korea"--come in person at 11 am EST or stream online! keia.org/event/beyond...

Today marks 100 days of Trump’s second term—and South Korea’s alliance anxieties may be deepening. Without a president in Seoul and facing a transactional US, economic and security pressures mount. My take for @carnegieendowment.org's 'Trump 2.0' series: carnegieendowment.org/emissary/202...

Had a blast getting super wonky with @korea.csis.org @victordcha.bsky.social Andrew Yeo and Yoojin Kim on how to unpack the Korean impeachment process and what it means for the country going forward! www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vuw...

After a historic ruling, Korea’s Constitutional Court upheld the impeachment of Pres Yoon Suk-yeol—a bold rebuke against authoritarian overreach. Yet the victory for democracy comes with a caveat: deep partisan divides have only widened @carnegieendowment.org carnegieendowment.org/emissary/202...

🔴 LIVE NOW The Constitutional Court unanimously upheld President Yoon Suk Yeol's impeachment. Join @csis.org @geopolitics.csis.org Impossible State Live Podcast with: ◾ @victordcha.bsky.social ◾ Yoojin Kim ◾ Andrew Yeo ◾ @darciedraudt.bsky.social 🔗: www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vuw...

Today, South Korea’s Constitutional Court formally removed impeached President Yoon Suk-yeol. But stark divisions among South Koreans will mean an uncertain future, writes @darciedraudt.bsky.social. Read Darcie’s assessment of the situation here: carnegieendowment.org/emissary/202...

ICYMI We hosted another great discussion on South Korea's political crisis, President Yoon's martial law, his impeachment & what's next this morning with the great @darciedraudt.bsky.social, Bruce Klingner, moderated by @csis.org @victordcha.bsky.social. Watch here www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVpa...

Really good point by @joelatkinson.bsky.social. PPP and many conservative citizens fear not just losing control of the executive, but also have a near-existential fear losing the ideological underpinnings of the nation. What does party loyalty mean in this case? What political game are we playing?

Article says that Han Dong-hoon will announce a road map to shortening Yoon’s term as an alternative to impeachment.

Maybe spoke too soon. According to this about 20 of the 108 PPP lawmakers remain, incl. Ahn Cheol-soo, who has expressed support for the impeachment motion, pro-Han Dong-hoon lawmakers such as Han Ji-ah, Kwak Kyu-taek, Park Jung-ha, Seo Beon-soo, Ko Dong-jin, Bae Hyun-jin, Kim Seong-won, and...

The plot twist is that, during a post-vote presser, Kim reveals that, and I am summarizing, "I am a conservative and will vote the party line", which is to oppose impeachment. He added that he doesn't support boycotting the vote.
