National Human Rights Commission of Korea under fire for defending martial law and pro-rebellion forces

The National Human Rights Commission of Korea (NHRCK) is facing mounting criticism for its recent actions that appear to be undermining democracy and human rights. The NHRCK is accused of defending the declaration of martial law, which has caused chaos in the nation, and siding with pro-rebellion forces.

The NHRCK is scheduled to discuss a motion to recommend measures to overcome the national crisis caused by the declaration of martial law and to urge the guarantee of President Yoon Seok-yeol's right to defense. This motion has been criticized for attempting to justify the declaration of martial law and deny the authority of the Constitutional Court to conduct impeachment trials.

Human rights commissioner Kim Yong-won has also come under fire for defending the seditious forces and making violent remarks targeting the Constitutional Court. His actions have been described as the exact opposite of the role of a human rights commissioner who should uphold the Constitution and maintain independence.

Critics argue that the NHRCK has betrayed its founding purpose of protecting and promoting human rights. They say that the NHRCK is now being used as a tool to defend the current regime and suppress dissent.

The NHRCK's actions have sparked public outrage and protests. Many people are calling for the resignation of the human rights commissioners and for the NHRCK to be reformed.

The controversy surrounding the NHRCK is a serious threat to democracy and human rights in Korea. It is essential that the NHRCK be independent and impartial in order to fulfill its mandate to protect the rights of all people.
