S. Korean Public Demands Abrogation of Recent S. Korea-Japan "Agreement"

Pyongyang, January 4 (KCNA) -- Rallies and demonstrations were held one after another in Seoul in the new year, too, in protest against "agreement" made by the south Korean authorities and Japan on the issue of the sexual slavery for the Imperial Japanese Army, according to the CBS of south Korea.

Persons of culture and arts, citizens and students held a rally on Jan. 2 to demand the abrogation of the "agreement".

The students, who launched a surprise demo near the Japanese embassy in Seoul on Dec. 31 last year, condemned the police and the regime's fascist crackdown on their just struggle.

The Council for the Solution of the Issue of the Volunteers Corps in south Korea announced that it would hold a Wednesday rally in demand of the nullification of the "agreement" in Australia, Germany and other parts of the world on Jan. 6.
