When will the media stop calling these people civic groups and instead call them anti-democracy advocates?:
Seoul police yesterday expanded its investigation on the assault on ruling Grand National Party lawmaker Chun Yu-ok, saying her attacker might have planned the attack beforehand with four other civic group members at the scene.
Chun the same day proposed a partial revision to the Act on the Compensation and Honor Restoration of Democratization Movement Activists.
While working on a bill to reexamine state compensation awarded to leftist activists who took part in a major democratic protest in Busan’s Dongeui University in 1989, Chun last week was attacked by Lee Jeong-e, a leader of Minkahyup, a coalition of families advocating democracy. [Donga Ilbo]
Only in Korea do you promote democracy by launching premeditated attacks on lawmakers you disagree with.
