Only 195 votes were cast, below the threshold of 200 needed for the vote to count.
"The entire nation is watching the decision being made here at the National Assembly today. World is watching," National Assembly speaker Woo Won-shik said with a sigh. "It's very unfortunate that there wasn't even a vote."
