Elon Musk Questions South Korea’s Political Crisis Amid Protests and Impeachment Talks

Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, who recently expressed interest in protests against the impeachment of South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol, has once again garnered attention by sharing another post related to South Korea on social media, raising questions about the core of the issue.

On Monday, Musk shared a post from the news account Visegrád 24 on his X account. The post reported that South Korea’s Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials authorized the police to execute a warrant for the president’s arrest. It noted that Yoon’s approval rating has risen to 40% among men in their 20s to 40s. The post also included a video from a recent anti-impeachment rally held in Gwanghwamun, Seoul.

In his commentary on the shared post, Musk wrote, “Wild times in Korea!” and asked, “What is actually the crux of the issue?” This demonstrates his interest in the Korean political landscape. The Visegrád 24 post also included footage from the recent anti-impeachment rally held in Gwanghwamun, Seoul.

On January 3, Elon Musk already attracted attention by replying with “Wow” to another post about a rally opposing Yoon’s impeachment.

The earlier post featured a photo of a Yoon supporter holding a placard that read, “STOP THE STEAL,” a slogan prominently used by Trump supporters in 2020 to claim election fraud.
