That day he was so shameless as to make his appearance among people from all walks of life including citizens, workers, students and bereaved families of the ferry Sewol disaster who met to hold the memorial service.

Infuriated by his behavior, citizens seized him by the collar and poured water on him, shouting "Go back!"

Experiencing a hot agony of shame in face of the masses, he could not but take to flight with his party members.

This was an eruption of the resentment of the south Korean public against the misrule of the "Saenuri Party" and the puppet ruling forces that have mercilessly trampled down the desire of the Kwangju uprisers.

Commenting on it, south Korean media claimed the attack on him had been expected.
