A Surprise Demonstration by the Democratic Labor Party

As Hong Suk-hyun, former Korean ambassador to the U.S., arrives at the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office on November 16, a Democratic Labor Party (DLP) official rushed to him, unfolding a placard reading, “Arrest and punish Hong Suk-hyun.” An official of the JoongAng Ilbo is stopping the DLP official by flinging his arms around the DLP official’s neck. Hong is the owner of the newspaper.
