Ruling party's leadership in Gwangju

The leadership of the ruling People Power Party, including its chief Kim Gi-hyeon (2nd from L), offers a silent prayer during a meeting of the party's Supreme Council in the southwestern city of Gwangju on May 18, 2023. Kim and the party's lawmakers are visiting Gwangju to take part in a memorial ceremony at a national cemetery in the city to mark the 43rd anniversary of a pro-democracy uprising, in which hundreds of people were killed in the city during protests against the military junta of Chun Doo-hwan in May 1980.
