On Sunday, a large protest by South Korean Christians took place in Seoul against a Supreme Court ruling that granted same-sex partners access to state health insurance benefits. Police estimated 230,000 attendees, while organizers claimed up to 1.1 million. Protesters argued the ruling was unconstitutional as same-sex marriage is not recognized in South Korea. LGBTQ activists condemned the demonstration, asserting it undermined inclusivity and human rights.
