In front of Chinese embassy, some practitioners in Seoul and media outlets participated in the activity. A practitioner first gave a background introduction of the statement. He said:
"From July 20, 1999, dictator Jiang Zemin and the Chinese Communist Party banned Falun Gong and started a most brutal persecution. In the past 6 years, tens of millions of practitioners have been interrogated. Hundreds of thousands have been sent to forced labor camps without trials. Several thousand practitioners have lost their lives because of the persecution. The exact number of practitioners who have been sent to mental hospitals for persecution remains unknown. We must stop the CCP's brutal human rights violations against practitioners. From now on, all those who continue to persecute Falun Gong and have chosen to take a self-destructive path will be held accountable without exception."
After his introduction, Chennu Gao, who was imprisoned in China for his belief in Falun Dafa, read the Falun Dafa Association statement.
After Mr. Gao, representatives of the Korean Falun Dafa Association delivered the statement to the Chinese Embassy. The practitioners then went to a nearby Chinese Consulate to hold a similar event and deliver the statement.
On the same day, practitioners in South Korea also gathered at the Chinese Consulate in Busan to read the statement and call on Chinese officials to forsake their evil path and choose to be good. A copy of the statement was also delivered to the consulate.
