On the morning of the 15th at 11:00 AM, a large-scale national rally was held at Gwanghwamun, Seoul, in commemoration of Liberation Day. The event, which began at 11:00 AM under the slogans "Eradicate election fraud!" and "Dissolve the National Election Commission!", holds significant meaning as a large-scale civic gathering that placed liberal democracy and national identity at the forefront of its agenda on a day celebrating Korea's liberation from Japanese colonial rule.
