A Korean cyclist is hunger striking outside Parliament Square

One year ago I visited Parliament Square in the last hours of the so called Democracy Village, a group of anti-war protesters and other protesters camped opposite the houses of Parliament. Yesterday I returned to see what has happened there in the meantime, and found that the square is still fenced off and out of bounds for the public. It seems the British state has not found a way to release the square for public use and has adopted a dog in a manger attitude. Along edge of the pavement, protesters are still camped on the pavement, just inches from the swirling traffic and constant exhausts fumes. It is in this harsh environment that veteran cyclist Okhwan Yoon has been staging his hunger strike for a month already. His aim is to attract attention to the plight of the 20 million North Koreans trapped for sixty years in what he describes as a prison camp, ie the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.
He complained about this youtube video of him, because of the map label "Japanese sea". He says it should be Korean sea.
