Since the December 3 emergency martial law incident, large-scale rallies have been held to call for the resignation of President Yoon Suk Yeol.

Foreign media are also showing great interest.

In particular, it focuses on the so-called 'parody flag' that appeared at the rally.

What flags were there?

Starting with the 'National Association of Motion Sick People', who came from far away to participate in the protest.

There was even a "scheduled people's union" that various schedules and appointments were pushed back due to the martial law crisis.

The dumpling union of the dumpling union, the pizza topping research group in the room, and the Federation of Angry Cat butlers also drew attention.

They're all non-existent parody groups.

The New York Times introduced parody flags with explanations in English.

At the same time, it was reported that Koreans calling for Yoon's resignation are expressing their anger with jokes and satire.

He added that Koreans are showing that even serious protests can be attractive, optimistic, and festive.

Foreign media also paid attention to the MZ generation-led rally culture.

Instead of folk songs, K-pop music resonated, and participants introduced the image of waving idol cheering sticks as if they were like a concert hall.

The world's attention is on the culture of assembly that pursues freedom rather than solemnity and individuality rather than unity.
