The union will start the rally at Pangyo Station and proceed with a march to Kakao Ajit, Kakao Entertainment, XL Games, and Kakao Enterprise. The reason for holding the 2nd rally is that the management has taken no action since the 1st rally. The union held the 1st rally on the 26th, demanding an apology and responsible management for the greedy management focused solely on the executives' profits. Despite the spread of employment instability due to voluntary resignations, early retirements, and company splits occurring in various community corporations, the management is unilaterally enforcing restructuring without any dialogue or apology.


After the 1st rally, the Crew Union delivered a protest letter to founder Kim Beom-su and plans to demand an audit of the former management of Kakao Enterprise from the management after the 2nd rally.



Seo Seung-wook, head of the Kakao union branch, said, "The keyword for the 1st action was 'Save Kakao' because the current situation is not a temporary crisis but a structural problem that can recur," adding, "We will continue sustained actions with the crews through picketing and the 2nd march."
