Removal of artist's works

A piece of heavy machinery removes "Navel of the World," a work of artist Lim Ok-sang, at the "Place of Memory" park on Mount Nam in Seoul on Sept. 5, 2023, as the Seoul metropolitan government implements its decision to remove his works installed at the park made to pay tribute to "comfort women," who were forced into Japanese military brothels during World War II. The decision came after Lim was convicted of sexual assault and given six months in prison, suspended for two years. (Yonhap)
