Starting in the early morning of Nov. 20, Ssangyong Motor workers in Pyongtaek, Gyeonggi province ascended an electricity pylon to stage a sit-in protest. Workers Han Sang-kyun, Moon Ki-joo and Bok Ki-seong are seeking the restart of a parliamentary investigation into the layoffs of Ssangyong workers. Jeon Eun-sook, wife of Bok Ki-seong sits in front of the police line with her hands clasped. This protest follows similar ongoing efforts at Hyundai Motor’s factory in Ulsan and in Dongdoochun by Daeyang Transportation workers. (by Park Jong-shik, staff photographer)
