A new survey finds that President Yoon Suk Yeol’s approval rating has hit a record low of eleven percent following his short-lived martial law attempt. 

According to a Gallup Korea survey of one-thousand-two adults nationwide from Tuesday to Thursday, eleven percent of respondents said Yoon is doing a good job, down five percentage points on-week.

The figure is the lowest posted since the launch of the Yoon administration in May 2022.

A record of 85 percent of respondents expressed dissatisfaction over Yoon’s performance. 

On ousting the president, 75 percent of respondents expressed support while 21 percent said they are opposed to it. 

Meanwhile, the survey found that the approval rating for the ruling People Power Party stood at 24 percent, down three percentage points from last week.

The main opposition Democratic Party(DP) saw its approval rating climb three percentage points to 40 percent. 

The gap in the rating between the two parties is the widest to be recorded since the launch of the incumbent government. 

The survey had a confidence level of 95 percent, with a margin of error of plus or minus three-point-one percentage points.
