6월 민주 항쟁: 33주년 기념행사 열린다<br /><br />Another day for people to remember here in South Korea.<br />33-years ago today June 10th, 1987 is when an anti-dictatorship, pro-democracy movement broke out in Seoul.<br />It became known as the June Democracy Movement and it ultimately led to the toppling of Chun Doo-hwan's then-authoritarian regime.<br />It also helped usher in a direct voting system.<br />And that eventually led to the revision of Korea's Constitution, allowing citizens to elect their own leader,... resulting in the establishment of the Sixth Republic, South Korea's current day government.<br />A memorial service will be held in the coming hours in honor of those who sacrificed it all for democracy.<br />We here at Arirang TV will be bringing you that memorial service at around 10AM, Korea time, with simultaneous English translation.<br />
