「韓国は戦争中?」と尋ねる外国人…今週末もソウルは大騒ぎ=韓国
Foreigners ask, ”Is Korea at war?”...Seoul is in uproar over the weekend = Korea
In South Korea, rallies have been held every weekend in downtown Seoul, including Gwanghwamun, since the beginning of this year, and citizens have complained about the inconvenience. On the 9th, a large-scale political rally by labor unions was held, and traffic congestion is expected.
On the 8th, the Seoul National Police Agency announced that a large-scale rally attended by tens of thousands of people will be held in downtown Seoul in the afternoon of the 9th, causing traffic congestion on some roads.
In the morning, rally stages will be set up on Sejong-daero, Tongil-ro, Eulji-ro, and Yeouidaero. In the afternoon, a large-scale rally will be held with the participation of tens of thousands of people from labor unions and other groups.
After the rally, a march is planned to take place in the direction of Sejong-daero, which is expected to cause traffic congestion in the downtown area. Police plan to ensure that vehicles, including metropolitan buses, can pass through in order to minimize inconvenience to citizens.
The government plans to deploy 220 traffic police officers to manage traffic by diverting vehicles. In downtown areas such as Gwanghwamun, rallies have been held every weekend since the beginning of this year.
In response, citizens are complaining of extreme fatigue. Demonstrators have occupied roads over the weekend, and company employees and self-employed people who arrive to work on the weekend have expressed their feelings that "our survival is being threatened."
Foreign tourists visiting Deoksugung Palace and other places are even asking, "Is Korea at war right now?" However, these large-scale rallies will continue as teasers until the end of the year.
On the 23rd, more than 10,000 members of the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions' Public Transport Workers' Union occupied the train tracks on the National Assembly Road in Yeouido, demanding wage increases and other measures.
It is planned to do so.
