Independence fighter's remains laid to rest

Soldiers carry the portraits of the late Korean independence fighter Chung Doo-ok and his wife, Lee Bong-a, during a burial ceremony at the National Cemetery in Daejeon, 164 kilometers south of Seoul, on Nov. 15, 2023. Their remains returned home 120 years after they immigrated to Hawaii in 1903 and participated in the independence movement during the 1910-45 Japanese colonial rule of Korea. (Yonhap)
