Over the past few days, South Korea has been in turmoil after President Yoon Suk Yeol called for martial law on December 3, 2024, and lifted it all in the span of six hours. Following his sudden decisions, citizens have begun to protest on the streets, calling for his impeachment. In line with the year-end festivities, Koreans have taken to singing impeachment carols.

It is customary to carry candles or lamps during protests, especially at night. One such protestor decided to bring their NCT lightstick to the cause. The neon-green square was visible even from a distance.

Wait a minute. What’s with that familiar-looking meat hammer in the front row of the floor seats?

Others were amused to find that they were even seated front and center, like a true fan.

It’s so f*cking funny how they’re in the front row too. Fangirl to the core.
