The president of S Korea just rescinded martial law after the legislature voted against it. Lasted maybe 12 hours 0r less.

He is in a bind because he was elected with less than 1% plurality in 2021 and his party lost badly in midterm lections earlier this year. The opposition is blocking pretty much everything he wants to do (Chuck Schumer would be proud) and his popularity is in the toilet. Also, lots of legal maneuvering and charges of corruption on both sides.

So did he misinterpret the military's willingness to support martial law and immediately backtracked when there was no support (he had to know they would vote against it and per S Korea law that cancels martial law -- unless the military decides different). I hope some enterprising journalist does a post mortem as so far it looks pretty reckless and stupid. Resignation usually follows but who knows.

Hunter would have to answer a subpoena to come before a Federal Grand Jury, and have to testify because the Pardon would prevent him using the Fifth Amendment because he has been pardoned for crimes 11 years previously, current crimes AND future crimes !

So there is no issue of his self-incrimination, as long as the new investigation was within the pardons scope !

Am I close ?

I think you're correct. Joe Biden has immunity as president but not for anything as VP, if I'm understanding this right.
