'Extend subway line to Pocheon'

Listen

A resident from Pocheon in northern Gyeonggi Province has his head shaved at Gwanghwamun Square, Seoul, Wednesday, in a show of protest calling for the speedy extension of Seoul Metro Line 7 to his city. Thousands of Pocheon residents rallied and claimed the government should provide rail infrastructure as compensation for the city's lack of development, as the city could not develop properly due to large military training sites there.
