Prime Minister Chung Un-chan, a public prosecutor and a representative of the conservative media jointly blow vuvuzelas, a long-standing tradition in South Africa’s football history, at a member of the People’s Solidarity for Participatory Democracy (PSPD). The vuvuzela is labeled “redbaiting.”

The PSPD member is taken aback at the collective “aeng!” coming from the vuvuzelas and covers his ears. In his pocket, there is the letter to the member nations of the UN Security Council.

Meanwhile, President Lee Myung-bak stands alone and blows a Vuvuzela labeled “The enforcement of Four Major Rivers Restoration Project,” seemingly caught up in his own world.

Prior to the joint civilian-military investigation team’s briefing at the UN Security Council on the sinking of the Cheonan on June 14, the PSPD submitted a letter to the U.N. highlighting contentious aspects of the investigation’s findings on June 10.

The Lee Myung-bak government has slammed the move as interference in diplomacy and the Supreme Prosecutors’ office has opened an investigation, while the PSPD has called it a justified action by a civic organization.
