In the S. Korean capital Seoul the coming days are designed as "Solidarity Week With the Victims of (Capitalist) Exploitation and (Mass) Dismissals".

 
The action week started yesterday afternoon on Seoul's City Hall Plaza with a memorial service for the 'martyrs' of the pro-democratic/anti-dictatorship movement 25 years ago:

 
After the memorial service a group of about 200 activists joined a "Walk for Solidarity". The aim: visiting and supporting sites in downtown Seoul where workers are in resistance/strike (Jaenueng Sit-in Strike, SsangYong Memorial Site...) or where the HQ of the ruling, i.e. exploiting and oppressing class are located (e.g. Samsung, responsible for the death of workers, but also for the destruction of Gureombi on Jeju Island):

 
Allthough the "Solidarity Walk..." was announced and 'licensed'(only on the sidewalk, where it took place) by the cops... the activists were finally attacked and later blocked by the cops:
