(Nightline closing statement on SBS December 5th)
Democracy, built with blood and tears, has overcome a critical juncture thanks to the efforts of citizens. The work of restoring democracy, which has been trampled for a while, is just beginning. The powerful cannot defeat the sovereign. I once again engrave in my heart Article 1, Paragraph 2 of the Constitution, which states that the sovereignty of the Republic of Korea belongs to the people and that all power comes from the people.
