@GIKorea seems to be putting all his efforts to make Yoon look good and hoping that he will return to power.
But as I’ve previously predicted, Yoon will be removed from power, and Lee Jae-Myung will become the next President of the Republic of Korea.
Perhaps @GIKorea should shut down his irrelevant blog lest he face charges of spreading fake news from Korean law enforcement.

A recent Gallup Korea poll found PPP support has recovered to 34% and DPK support has declined to 36%. This is nearly the same results that the Realmeter poll found.
Support for impeachment has declined from 75% to 64%. Against has gone up from 21% to 32%. There was no change among liberals whose support for impeachment has held steady at 96%, but centrist support has fallen from 83% to 70%, and conservative frim 46% to 33%. Abstain was 4%.
If conservatives continue to rally together, and there’s good reason to suspect they will, support for impeachment might become a 50 50 split.
Why is this happening? DPK has gone feral with chain impeachment threats, and calls for execution and wide scpoe investigations have likely sparked fears that they may go quite a bit further than Moon when he purged ‘accumulated evils”. This is now seen as an existential fight by the right. The political system will continue to break down. Future coup attempts are likely.

The best outcome for the PPP would be Yoon getting martyred in an arrest attempt. It removes a politically embrassing problem of Yoon for the right, and transforms him into a platform for unity against the left. Talk about civil war is fermenting, and paramilitary anti-communist action is being planned for. Baekgoldan is just the begining. Remember, Yoon won the male youth vote by wide margin, and organized violence is the male youth domain. The right will have no trouble enforcing its will if it comes to that.
KM and KP (DPK) have completely lost their minds, and I’m happy they did. They have breathed new life into the Korean right.

When the civil war happens, the right will be dominated by young masculine males confident in their ability to succeed if left alone and not encumbered by intrusive government and foreign concerns…
…and the left will be dominated by emotional K-pop girls, well-meaning people who think Muslim refugees are good for Korean society, and wussies demanding to be taken care of.
The predators who run the leftist leadership will simply not have the human resources to enforce their will.
Violence is never the answer.
(Looks at history book… ohhhh…)
But it will be to save Korea if rational thought is not accepted.
Bonus: The American civil war will be black rifles vs bong & dildos. It will be the most violent 3 and half minutes in history.
Double Bonus: the CIA believes Korea has more privately owned firearms per capita than most developed countries. War, 70 years of slicky boys vs GIs, looted armories, Russian sailors, returning Koreans and their containers of household goods, a mechanized society with access to www dot gunplanswithhandtools dot com… etc.
To be more serious, this is only marginally a right/left thing. This is a nationalist/globalist thing.
The nationalists recognize that Korea is amazingly successful and want to reinforce the things that made Korea this way while thoughtfully improving the things that are holding Korea back. This is a conservative viewpoint that leads to continued success and further improvement.
The non-Korean globalist want to control Korea and they use the leftist tools with the same empty promises that communism offered. The globalists promise if you burn it all down, you can rebuild it in the image of a utopia where everybody teaches intersectional theory and nobody picks turnips.
I can detail why this is nonsense. Those who matter already know. Those who don’t know, won’t listen and don’t matter.

GrayBlack, if the PPP party really believe in that fake poll that they manipulated, why don’t they stop blocking the investigation attempts and let the law enforcement do its duties? If they’re so confident that they will win a landslide victory, why are they still protecting Yoon? They can field another candidate, other than Yoon, and they can take the next election.
As for Yoon, he is not being arrested for the insurrection. He was summoned by the court, to cooperate with the investigators after he was accused of abusing his power. The investigators need to question him but he refused, citing that he’s the President, and that he’s above the law, and that he didn’t do anything wrong. Whether he’s guilty or not is up to the courts to decide. But refusing to cooperate with the police, is against the law.
Unlike in the United States, in South Korea, no-one is above the law including the President. If you failed at robbing a bank, it’s up to the courts to decide if you were guilty of bank robbery, not you. You cannot say, “you cannot investigate me because I’m the President”. That doesn’t fly in South Korea.

Why do you think I’m joking? Has your ex-President gone to jail yet? Oh no, he’s back to being the President again. Your country’s now a joke, it’s a playground for the ultra-rich people who can get away with everything. You think I’m the only one who thinks like that?
Remember when setnaffa said, “Trump is just an entertainer”?
setnaffa is in on the joke. The Ed McMahon of rokdrop.
The Muskenator and Bannon Boy stealing TV airtime from Baron Trump with their stoush over H-1B visas.
The Trumper does his usual kayfabe schtick and it’s Invade Greenland!
Then when Invading Greenland doesn’t happen, and Baron Trump later says: “Invading Greenland is just a stretch goal”.
Ed setnaffa McMahon winks to the audience, conspiratorily* taps his nose with his right index finger, and expostulates: “The Weave! Trump is the Dreamweaver!”
These people will believe anything.
They believe that The Kardashians, Adam West’s Batman and Murdoch Fox News are all documentaries.
*… torily … English Tories were the redcoats … …
Now the redcoats are the fans of the kayfabe: The Muskenator, Bannon Boy and Baron Trump.
China has announced the discovery of lithium reserves of 6-30 million tonnes on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau.
This will further reduce oil and gas prices for Russia’s Putin.
Also in today’s news: one of two DPRK soldiers captured by Ukrainian special forces 3 days ago has stated that he was told by DPRK officers that he was:
“going for training, not to fight a war against Ukraine,” SBU (Security Services of Ukraine) statement.
This is all working out well for the Muskenator, and the next Tesla off the rank is getting his boy Trump to overturn any ban on Tik-Tok in the USA.
50% of Teslas are Made in China.
Trump also kowtowing to the Muskenator’s demand to increase the proportion of Chinese dreamers for H1-B visas.
This must be a dilemma for Trumpers.
Backing the Muskenator’s boy Trump … has resulted in strengthening China
OTOH, at least one ROKDROP regular is ecstatic that the gender ratio for young Russians is continuing to skew female the longer the war in Ukraine continues.

China seeks closer ties with South Korea, but challenges remain
“They believe the South Korea-U.S. alliance could weaken under the next Trump administration and the strategic balance on the Korean Peninsula is crumbling. Under such circumstances, China is focused on economic incentives and its persistent global influence. So working with neighboring countries for stability is important.”
The US is very belligerent to every country right now, as they think they’re the only country that’s worthy to exist. But China seems to want to take advantage of this, and they are holding out their hands.
It certainly does sound like Temu and Qanon are joined at the hip hyphen.
Temu funds Qanon to get Trump into the White House
– Tik-Tok survives
– Temu earns big bux from advertorials on Tik-Tok
– Temu suppliers spend the extra bux on Teslas
– Made in China.
Win-win for the Muskenator.

Is Musky’s X any better than Teemu? It’s a platform for US propaganda that says the US is above the law when it comes to invading other nations, led by a leader who was just found guilty of a crime yet won’t get any punishment because he’s above the law. We also have a Korean President who tried to declare a military rule, ban democracy, and make people disappear, who now says he’s above the law, so he won’t cooperate with the investigation – then claiming victimhood.
What should the world do with these peoples and these countries?

Just as I had said, that the poll numbers were completely manipulated, Factcheck just destroyed the narrative that Yoon’s approval rates were rising to 40%.
The Rightwing media had erased the fact that the poll was done in 2022. In fact, AFP fact check could not find any poll results from December 2024 put out by the four pollsters that matched the numbers in the graphic.
So where is GrayBlack who claimed that the polls show Yoon as rising in popularity? What do you have to say about what Factcheck has found below?
Realmeter posted alongside its latest poll published January 6, 2025, that it was “not surveying President Yoon Suk Yeol’s approval ratings while his authority is under suspension” and that it would only resume such polling “if Yoon returns to power should the Constitutional Court overrule his impeachment”
Kstat Research and Korea Research’s latest joint poll published on December 19, put Yoon’s approval at 16 percent and his disapproval at 79 percent.
Next Research did not publish a poll in December 2024.

If nobody is polling the president’s popularity at the time that would be the most useful information throughout all of his presidency, it is a form of poll manipulation.
If there was a suspicion his popularity had slipped, they would be polling like crazy.
But we all know his popularity has risen because the people around us who didn’t like Yoon (didn’t like, not irrationally hate due to propaganda) are now grudgingly supporting Yoon, primarily because the alternative is worse.
