30th of May 2013 Taksim, Istanbul, Turkey 

I came to Istanbul to meet a urbanist and curator Pelin and I learned that there is a protest against to park developing.
I joined it since the beginning, growing of the demonstration.
It looked like very peaceful, pretty much unorganized very autonomic.  
It reminds me so much about 2008-anti Free trade between usa and korea movement. At that time not so many western broadcast reported  such a revolution compare to turkish revolution.I'm wondered why. Korean police also used very cruel to their own citizen.

South Korean Police Crack Down with water cannon 2008. 


30th of May 2013 Gezi Park 

People were having peaceful moment with many citizens! On 28th was only less then a 300-400 people but second day it kept growing. During the demo in the Gezi Park Turkey citizens tried to protect even small trees! big trees of-cours. I had to watch that many trees cut for dams in S.Korea. so I know the feelings when you see the destroyed nature.  
was moved and touched this isn't just problem of Turkey. 
I don't understand Turk so it took me couple of days to understand it wasn't just about Gezi park but the injustice of the Turk Gov.
But Neo-liberalistic nation problems are not just belong to
their own country but whole world should solve the insanity. 












31st of May 2013 Taksim, Istanbul, Turkey

The bloody day

In the morning I went to Taksim park with Pelin Tan for a solidarity for turkish friends but
as soon as we climbed up the hill of the park there was a tear gas attack that I was a bit fainted and vomited couldn't breath at all. the skins are still burning even after 3 hours 

















I'm having allergenic respond now having strange water spots on my neck hands and arms still burning hot all the after 6hours.  





I've been through many S.Korean demonstrations attacked by police but even the famous South.Korean police dosen't use that thick gas as like this one! I cannot say who is worse but I'm sure the two governments having same cruel skills to beat up citizens. They are real brother countries on the abusing their power. 









They used water cannon as well . But they used the cannon under 30 degrees that a lot of people can be insured! Even in Korea it is prohibited after 2008 ANTI-usa, s.korean FREE Trade demo. There was no warning before shooting that make a guy seriously insured. Shame on the Turkish Government ! We should share skills of direct actions!! We have so many different demos in Korea so we have some good archive that we have done. let's share.

people at the hotel was very nice most of the citizens supporting there actions.





I'm wondered who is the designer of this water cannon car. In Korea we have to fight with this too. Korean police mixing tear gas with the water melting out people's skin. When can we be free from such a violence of the Government? 





protesters moved to Taksim square where full of tourists are walking around the biggest shopping malls locate. they use tear gas AGAIN here! cannot believe this!




지금 터키는 얘기듣던 그 광주입니다.고급호텔이 문을 열어 부상자들을 쉬게 하고 있고 가게들이 문을열어 시위자들에게 물과 레몬을 제공하고 있습니다. 차들은 경적을 울려 이스탄불 신시가지가 새벽 2시지만 떠들석합니다.

gezi park is ours!

mask, lemon and the special recipe for tear gas! 


 Turkish Barricade.




people were happy because there was no policeman. all of them were surprised because In Turkey it was the first time such a crowd gathered on justice and human right.
  
 People shouted and sang together. I couldn't upload this pictures because internet is getting slow in Istanbul. Tweeter nor facebook didn't work most part of Istanbul.
 this crowd reminds me 2008 anti-fta between s.korean and usa again.



Around 7pm police crack down with CS gas started.
many injured at Ankara.


6월1일 그 전날의 경찰의 잔인함에 항의하기 위해, 극우화되고
인권을무시하는 정부에 항의하기 위해정말 셀 수 없이 많은사람들이 거리를 가득메웠습니다. 2008년이 생각났습니다.

이스탄불 탁심광장, 거리를 가득메운 터키시민들! 정말 수백만명이 나온듯했습니다. 
행렬이 끝을 보이지 않았습니다. 경찰은 찾아볼 수 없었고 사람들은 경찰을 이기고 게지공원을 다시 찾은것에 대해 노래하고 춤을 췄습니다. 
하지만 저녁이 되자 오렌지색의 신경가스를 
시민들에게 발포했습니다. 이것은 사임의 이유일뿐만 아니라 
사법적 책임까지 져야하는 중대한 범죄입니다.
