Today's Korea Times(KT) reported the following: "Some 30 former Ssangyong Motor workers and about 20 members of supporting civic groups on Monday ended(*) a rally which was launched on Jan. 7(**) to call for talks with management to address their reinstatement... During the six-day rally from an Ssangyong Motor repair shop in Guro in southwestern Seoul, they prostrated themselves every 10 steps(***)..."

** More pics you'll get here and here(on LabourStart you'll get some more detailed reports in Korean...)
*** [오체투지/五體投地] Orthodox Buddhist-style protest...
KT also 'reported' that "They attempted to move to a community center near Cheong Wa Dae, but were stopped in Gwanghwamun by riot police..."
But despite the fact that the rally was complete peacefully, they were attacked several times by the cops! As you can see, for example, here(1.10 in the early evening, nearby Gwanghwamun)...
Today's bourgeois (conservative/reactionary)JoongAng Ilbo "reported" the following...
The fact is, that yesterday - after 48 days of strike - about 300 "irregular" SK broadband workers 'occupied' the lobby of their employer's HQ in downtown Seoul. With the sit-in struggle they just wanted to reinforce their demands for regular emloyment contracts and better working conditions. But the management refused any negotiations... and called the cops. At the end at least 220 workers were arrested(more detailed info in Korean you'll get here)!
About three weeks ago(12.13) Lee Chang-geuk and Kim Jeong-wook, two dismissed Ssangyong Motor workers started their aerial protest 70m up a chimney...

And still... our SOLIDARITY is needed!!
