Protesters leave funeral wreaths at South Korean Parliament following market plunge
As South Korea’s stock market plummeted by nearly 40% over the last month, demonstrators left funeral wreaths in front of the National Assembly. They criticized regulators, claiming they were "slaughtering retail investors." One message on a wreath warned, "Wait till payback time, I will repay next time I vote." Following a chip-focused sell-off that wiped out $2 trillion in value, Finance Minister Koo Yun-cheol issued a formal apology.
