LGBT rights activists, who gathered for a pride event in Incheon on Saturday, September 8, repeatedly chanted “We are here” before the event broke up, after a day that involved a standoff with religious counter-protesters. These videos were uploaded by a person who attended the Incheon Queer Culture Festival and reported that the event was due to start at 11 am, but that counter-protesters had arrived the night before to occupy the space that had been permitted for use by the festival organizers. As a result, police blocked others from entering the area and a planned parade was delayed from 4 pm to around 7:30 pm.
