Participants chanted slogans Tuesday afternoon at a national representatives' press conference held at Gwanghwamun Square in Jongno-gu, Seoul, calling on the government to reject US pressure for troop deployment. The attendees declared emergency actions — including a concentrated picket and march ahead of the National Security Council meeting on Thursday — to oppose the deployment of South Korean forces to the Strait of Hormuz.
