According to the legal community on the 5th, the Seoul Administrative Court decided the day before to allow the KCTU to hold rallies on the 7th, 11th, and 14th from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. on two lanes in front of the Seoul Finance Center in Jung-gu, Seoul, during rush hour.


Following this decision, severe traffic congestion is expected to occur around the Gwanghwamun area during rush hours if the rallies take place.



The police stated, "We respect the judiciary's decision," but considering the inconvenience to commuters, they added they "will file an immediate appeal."
