South Korean President Yoon was removed from office 123 days after attempting martial law, following a unanimous Constitutional Court ruling. People across Korea are celebrating in the streets, while millions in the Korean diaspora watched the decision via livestream.

“The protesters’ unwavering belief—that the world before Sewol and the world after must not be the same—had finally bloomed into flowers of rage within them. For them, enduring one winter night was nothing compared to those who had perished in the cold sea.”

“When one declared, “This country has abandoned women in their 20s and 30s, but we are here to save the nation,” I felt ashamed of my country. But I also saw its future in these women.”

In "The Return of Global Sisterhood? The Transnational Journey of the 4B Movement on TikTok" @jinsookkim.bsky.social explores the 4B movement as a transnational form of feminism that has been cultivated through digital platforms. Read it here: tinyurl.com/3c322z8y!

Jinsook Kim @jinsookkim.bsky.social · 20/02/2025

Instead of celebrating 4B as a successful example of transnational feminism moving from the non-West to the West, I argue that we should critically examine which feminist ideas travel successfully, why, and the effects such visibility might have on both local and transnational feminist politics.

“I’m a part of you, and you’re a part of me. Here, I’ve met people like me—people who wouldn’t hate me—and through all of you, I’ve finally found the courage to love this cruel world.”These powerful words remind us of the strength we find in solidarity. I’m always learning so much from the streets.

Last Saturday, nearly 30% of all protesters were women in their 20s and 30s. (Purple represents women and green represents men) As you will see, the gender gap is rather striking. www.khan.co.kr/article/2024...

Stayed up all night, anxiously following the news. Yet, the motion to impeach President Yoon failed because the ruling party boycotted the vote. Unacceptable and outrageous. Yoon must be impeached immediately and the People Power Party must be dissolved. A long and difficult battle lies ahead.

While the martial law has now been lifted, President Yoon and those complicit must be held accountable in order to ensure that such abuse of power does not happen again. We believe that resistance against state violence and militarism is feminist politics.“

In the context of continuing war, genocide, and violence in many parts of the world, we strongly condemn President Yoon’s mobilization of military troops to offset his own political crisis.
