A group of abductees canceled sending leaflets to North Korea today, how is the site now?

Yes, a rally was held at the same time at around 10 a.m. by North Korean groups trying to distribute leaflets to the North and nearby residents and civic groups opposing it.

During the hour-long rally, the two sides each expressed the need and opposition to the need for leaflets to North Korea.

In order to prevent clashes between the two sides, the police separated the space by setting up a bus barrier between the two sides' assembly sites in advance.

As police control took place, there was no direct conflict between the two sides.

However, after the press conference, some members of the opposition group pushed the cordon set up by the police to stop sending leaflets to the North, drawing keen attention from the police.

In addition, some members of opposition groups were stopped by the police as they moved to the location of the group's meeting in North Korea.

A group of abductees, the Family Gathering of abductees, gathered here at 11 a.m. with plans to distribute 50,000 leaflets to North Korea.

After the press conference, they were scheduled to fly fliers to North Korea, but they announced that they would cancel the plan, saying they would push for it again soon.

The group said it would push ahead with the event, saying North Korea would stop broadcasting South Korea or spraying garbage balloons first, but suddenly changed its plan.

Earlier, when a North Korean group planned to distribute leaflets, more than 100 people, including residents of Paju Civilian Control Line Village and civic groups, drove tractors and protested.

Residents protested that the daily life and livelihood of North Korea were collapsing due to the severe damage caused by the spraying of leaflets against the North, such as increasing the noise intensity of loudspeakers in the South.

Gyeonggi Province has deployed more than 70 special judicial police officers to immediately stop the North Korean group's attempt to disperse leaflets to the North.

The crackdown did not take place when the leaflet was canceled.

The police also spent more than 1,000 careers and the fire authorities mobilized ambulances to prepare for an emergency, but fortunately, there was no major conflict that was feared.
