Amid ongoing large-scale rallies calling for the resignation of President Yoon Suk-yeol, a vehicle decorated with the rear windshield wiper spelling out 'Impeachment' has caught public attention.

On the 8th, a video showing this vehicle was posted on X (formerly Twitter) along with a comment saying, "Koreans seem like geniuses." The video featured the owner of a 'BMW M3 Touring,' which has a starting price of about 137.6 million KRW, decorating the rear windshield wiper. The wiper displayed the character '탄' (tan), and on the lower right side, there was a photo of President Yoon alongside the character '핵' (haek). Each time the wiper moved, the word '탄핵' (Impeachment) was completed, creating the effect of waving a flag by hand.

Netizens who saw the vehicle responded with cheerful comments such as "Truly a nation of humor," "The people of Korea even enjoy these times," "You can protest on the road too," "The methods of protest are really diverse," "So funny. I laughed a lot," "I should make one when I get home," "Is this going to be a trend?" and "Koreans are truly the best."

Major foreign media outlets are also paying attention to Korea's cheerful protest culture. On the 7th, the British BBC reported on the impeachment rally held in front of the National Assembly in Yeouido, describing it as "like an outdoor music festival with large screens and crane cameras." They added, "Participants were joyfully protesting while singing various genres of songs."

The U.S. Washington Post stated, "Tens of thousands gathered in freezing temperatures to hold a candlelight protest in front of the National Assembly," noting, "Young people participated in the protest waving light sticks of their favorite K-pop groups." AFP and Singapore's largest daily, The Straits Times, also expressed amazement, saying, "The protesters danced to K-pop, waving colorful light sticks and LED candles, reminiscent of a joyful dance party."
