Ex-leader of Jogye Order dies

A portrait of Ven. Jaseung, a former head of the Jogye Order, South Korea's largest Buddhist sect, is displayed in the main hall of Jogye Temple in Seoul on Nov. 30, 2023. The monk immolated himself, the order said the same day, after he was found dead in a fire at a dormitory for Buddhist monks inside Chiljang Temple in Anseong, south of Seoul, the previous day.
