Due to the breakdown of wage collective bargaining between labor and management of city buses in Changwon, Gyeongnam, 724 buses belonging to 9 companies stopped operating from the first bus at 5 a.m. on the 19th.
Temporary city buses with banners, route numbers, and notices attached run along the bus routes to replace the city buses that have gone on a total strike.
Members of the Union of Village and Neighborhood Heads rode along each bus to assist citizens with boarding and alighting from vehicles.
