Yesterday (3st), a Japanese flag was thrown out of an apartment in Sejong, causing protests from local residents. As a result of this incident, more and more local residents are planning to wear tai chi for a month.

This was covered by TJB reporter Yang Jung-jin.

On the day of Section
1.1, a Japanese flag was thrown into an apartment in Hansol-dong, Sejong, instead of a taeguk flag, and the online community has received a flurry of "disgraceful" and "angry" responses, and protest visits from some groups and residents continue.

At the time, the resident of the household claimed to be Japanese, but when the reporter checked the registered copy, the owner was a Korean man in his 3s.

The party also belatedly claimed that he was a South Korean and that he had come forward to support cooperation with Japan.

The household is currently under the Japanese flag.

On the other hand, in the wake of this incident, there is a movement among apartment residents in Sejong City to raise the flag for a month.

A neighbor also joined in hanging the flag.

Because I wanted to make sure that there are things that should never be done to children.

[Kim Miso/Sejong Si Han Sol-dong: I was thinking about what I could do as a mother and an ordinary housewife, and then I asked to do a month-long walking exercise at a café, so I joined in.]

In Sejong and Hongseong, part of the Statue of Peace was found damaged on the day of Section 1.50.

The statue of the girl in Hongseong-gun had scratches and cuts all over her face, including her nose and forehead, while the statue of the girl in Sejong Lake Park had her hat and cape torn in five places with sharp tools.

The civic group said it appeared to be a crime committed by someone with impure intentions and asked the police to investigate.
