Strongman's grandson apologizes to pro-democracy victims Chun Woo-won (L), a grandson of the late former South Korean President Chun Doo-hwan, comforts a bereaved family member of a victim of the crackdown on a pro-democracy uprising in 1980 in the city of Gwangju, about 270 kilometers south of Seoul, on March 31, 2023, as he offers an apology in lieu of his grandfather. The 27-year-old has referred to his grandfather as "a slaughterer" due to the military's brutal suppression of the Gwangju uprising after he seized power through a coup in 1979.
