Like many other street vendors, he had been under constant threat of violent actions by local officials. They used to take his goods by force and destroy his stall when they cracked down on the street vendors. In protest against such riotous situation, he eventually set himself alight in public on 23 August 2002 and he passed away 6 September. Since this tragic death, NASVK has been demanding an apology from those responsible for it. Until now, there have been more than 17 mass rallies, and small rallies have also been held. A large number of street vendors have joined the rallies. But the government has ignored the death of Park Bong-Kyu and the increasing voice of street vendors. Now eight persons of those who have led the rallies are wanted by the police since 24 December 2002. Two of them are Kim Heung- Hyun and Choi In-Gi, who participated in the international launch of StreetNet International in Durban, South Africa, in November 2002. Since the financial crisis in 1997, the number of unemployed in Korea has drastically increased. Many of them became street vendors for livelihood. However, instead of reflecting on this reality, the government enforced regulation, which made basic livelihood even more difficult. Many of crackdowns are practiced not by ward officials but by civilian service employees who are often suspected to be related with gangs. They treat street vendors very violently. So whenever a crackdown happens, lots of vendors suffer mental and physical torture. In particular, women experience even sexual harassment. During the crackdown just before he burned himself, Park Bong-Kyu was beaten and insulted. The government has expressed neither apology nor condolences. His corpse is still unclaimed at a morgue. His family doesn't want to bury his body until the government adopts a sincere attitude to his death. On 9 January 2003, a working man whose name is Bae Dal-Ho burned himself to death in protest against the suppression of trade union and worsening working conditions. The police has issued a seizure and search warrant on his dead body – therefore his family are unable to hold a funeral. (Up to now, his corpse remains on the spot where he burned himself! His colleagues are preventing the police from confiscating his body by force.) Other workers began protesting against the company and the government who ignores the duty of mediating. This shows the desperate situation of the deprived in Korea. NFSVK says: ¡°It is very important to continue our protest because the orientation of government's policy for street vendors depends on the resolution of this accident. We will not give up our fight until the government takes the death of Park Bong-Kyu into serious consideration and expresses their sincere apology.¡± StreetNet International appeals to the government of Korea to engage in sincere dialogue with their street vendors about how they are to earn their livelihoods, starting by convening an urgent meeting with the National Federation of Street Vendors of Korea (NFSVK). Surely only sincere and open dialogue is the best way to avoid such drastic and desperate actions by poor struggling people who are being frustrated every day in their attempts to make an honest living.
