As of Oct. 17, Kiryung Electronic union leader, Kim So-Yeon and poet, Song Kyung-Dong are going through the 3rd night on the top of a forklift truck with which police tried to demolish the workers’ vigil site on Oct. 15. On the day of police raid, the workers and activists seized the truck, covered it with their struggle slogans such as, “Workers are human beings, too,” “We are not disposable,” “ Negotiate right now, “Reinstate us immediately,” and “Abolish the irregular jobs.”

Currently, the irregular workers occupy more than 60% of the whole work force in South Korea as the capitalism has changed its face with a neo-liberalism.

The each of the two sleeps on the top of truck in the night, in separate sleeping bags, demonstrating their will to strongly fight against another possible police raid. The two are determined to risk arrest, people say.

The width of the top they are sitting is about 60cm that is about 24inch.
