Condolences and insults as Seoul mayor’s funeral held online
Masked mourners gave speeches and laid flowers in front of the coffin of Seoul’s mayor during his funeral on Monday, while a live broadcast online drew a mixture of condolence messages and insults.
Since Park Won-soon was found dead in a wooded area in northern Seoul on Friday, the South Korean public have been sharply split over how to commemorate his death due to media reports that one of his secretaries had lodged a complaint with police alleging sexual harassment.
