What were the immediate consequences of the failed impeachment attempt against South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol?

"President Yoon Suk Yeol of South Korea survived an impeachment attempt on December 7th, 2023, despite the opposition's efforts. The vote fell short of the required two-thirds majority in the National Assembly, with only 195 out of 300 members participating. This is significant because the opposition, holding 192 seats, lacked the necessary support from the ruling party to succeed. This was despite calls for President Yoon's resignation from within his own party.
