Rail unionists call off strike

The embattled union of Korea Railroad (KORAIL) called off its longest-ever strike Thursday after severely crippling the nation's rail services for eight days.

The KORAIL union called a news conference Thursday evening to announce that its striking members will immediately return to work "in order to prepare for a fresh struggle against the government and the KORAIL management."

The union then urged the management to resume dialogue in a "faithful and reasonable" manner.
