Could South Korea see second impeachment?

“The situation has already thrown South Korean politics into turmoil, with the threat of the nation’s first democratically elected leader being permanently thrown from office and members of the highest levels of both politics and business enmeshed in the scandal. With that in mind, even though the three main liberal opposition parties have enough parliamentary seats to secure the majority required to impeach the acting president, it is unclear whether they would actually take that step. Some are wary of potential conservative backlash if they seek a second impeachment so soon.”
