Pyongyang, January 9 (KCNA) -- A mass candlelight resistance continues in the whole region of south Korean puppets including Seoul in the new year, too, to demand the resignation of traitor Yoon Suk Yeol, a war maniac, sycophantic maniac, fascist dictator and kingpin of corruption and irregularities.

The 72nd grand candlelight march was staged in the area of Seoul on January 6 under the slogan "Step down Yoon Suk Yeol! Make a special inspection of Kim Kon Hui!"

Many people from all walks of life turned out in the struggle with candles in their hands despite the cold of winter.

Organizations of various circles, including the emergency action made up of 82 civic and public organizations, held rallies in different parts of Seoul to express their will to launch intensive struggles in the whole region to make 2024 the year of Yoon's resignation.

At a rally sponsored by the candlelight action, its participants expressed their anger at the prosecution dictatorship of Yoon Suk Yeol, holding such slogans of struggle as "Impeachment is peace. Let's defend peace with the impeachment of Yoon Suk Yeol!" and "Conduct a special investigation of special class criminal Kim Kon Hui!"

Saying that it is time to fight with action, not with words, the speakers stressed the need to impeach the Yoon Suk Yeol dictatorial regime and make the "general election" in April the spring of impeaching Yoon and make 2024 the year of Yoon's resignation.

The participants staged a demonstration toward the puppet presidential office, chanting such slogans as "Let's bring down Yoon to the last in 2024!"

In Kwangju, too, people from all walks of life held a candlelight rally, holding such posters as "Let's drive out Yoon Suk Yeol in the spirit of May 18". They declared that they would fight once again with the death-defying will to step down Yoon as in the Kwangju resistance in May 1980.

Meanwhile, the Confederation of Trade Unions held a rally in Kyonggi Province and expressed the will to wage a courageous struggle against the fascist suppression by the Yoon Suk Yeol puppet group this year, too.

The participants in the rally chanted such slogans as "Let us oust the Yoon Suk Yeol regime!" and "Let us prevent the retrogressive revision of labor law!" -0-
