The South Korean agency "Yonhap" reported that last Saturday about 850 thousand people gathered at the Seoul's main square (where the protest was held).
In order to ensure law and order, 25,000 police officers were sent to the venue of the rally. The law enforcement authorities of South Korea expected about 170 thousand people to take part in the strike.

The case of the president's interrogation will become the first in the history of South Korea.
