The rally was the 2nd part of a collective mourning over the death of power plant worker Kim Yong-gyun, 24. On Dec. 11, Kim's body was found wedged into a conveyer belt used to transport coal at the Taean Thermal Power Plant operated by state-run Korea Western Power (KOWEPO) in South Chungcheong Province. After the opening rally(@Gwanghwamun) the protesters marched toward CheongWaDae(the presindential office), shouting "Away with irregular employment, away with deadly outsourcing operations"...
