"ANGER"
Comrade "Hong Gil-dong from the Forest" "(숲속홍길동同志) made following short video about last Friday's clash between the working class (aeh.. just a very, very, very... small part of it..) and the ruling class on Yeouido, next to the National Assembly, the S.K. parliament.(*)
(A short text about the back ground of the fight you can read here: Protesters Clash With Police In South Korea, there you also can watch another video - without any comment^^ - about the "event".)
Meanwhile K. Herald reported in its latest edition (actually tomorrow's printed edition) following:
Striking truckers wreck vehicles
Government warns harsh action against protesting cargo workers
The government yesterday warned of stern action against striking truckers as they blockaded major roads and allegedly destroyed vehicles owned by nonunion drivers.
More than 130 vehicles - including private automobiles - were wrecked and set on fire in South Jeolla and North Gyeongsang provinces, apparently by strikers, police said.
The Korea Cargo Transport Workers' Federation went on strike Friday demanding prompt settlement of labor bills on raising cargo transport fees and guaranteeing labor rights.
Their industrial action disrupted shipment at major ports hitting the export-driven economy.
The hardest hit was Gwangyang Port in the southwest, which handled about 35 percent of its usual cargo volume yesterday afternoon. Other ports in Busan and Pyeongtaek were running at less than half their normal cargo capacity.
Over 16,000 cargo workers gathered in rallies in 43 areas across the country yesterday.
The strike is expected to reach a turning point today as the National Assembly construction committee debates the new set of labor bills.
Even nonmembers of the federation have threatened to join the strike if there is still no resolution on the bills..

So, as you can see:
THE CLASS WAR ISN'T OVER,
NOT REALLY!^^
* Only one year ago, nearly at exactly the same date, with (perhaps) the same "staff" and at the same place (aeh.. something is different: the cops have new, plastic shields!!!):
