On the same day, the student council posted an urgent notice on social networking services (SNS) stating, "Since the university administration has classified the occupation of the main building as an illegal act, it is difficult to continue the occupation." This marks the end of the sit-in protest 23 days after it began.


The student council said, "We have requested the university administration to hold a meeting to discuss the student council's demands," adding, "A meeting is expected to be arranged soon."



In response, the university stated that it will observe the student council's demands. It is also reported that the university has not yet decided its position regarding the complaints and injunctions filed with the police and courts.
