Amnesty International Korea staged an anti-government "ghost rally" using holographic images in Seoul, the first of its kind in Korea.
The international human rights group projected holographic images of protesters on a screen at Gwanghwamun Square in central Seoul, Wednesday, the eve of President Park Geun-hye's third anniversay in office.
In the 30-minute projection, holographic people chanted slogans like "Guarantee peaceful assembly" and "We are not illegal," also holding a banner reading "Assembly is a human right." Some walked in silence, wore masks and held flowers to their chests.
Korea Times photojournalist Shim Hyun-chul and Choi Won-suk captured the protest in photos and video.
