Demand for voting-hour extension
Performance artists practice 108 bows, a Korean-Buddhism tradition to achieve one’s wish, in front of the National Assembly in Yeouido, Seoul, Tuesday. The move was to reflect the hopes of young liberal voters who want a revision to the current voting hours for the Dec. 19 presidential election. They have called for an extension of the voting hours to run from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m., an increase from the current 12-hour period that requires voting to end at 6 p.m. / Yonhap
