Among the thousands gathered today in front of the National Assembly are many mums and dads with young children.

They have a unique shelter provided for them: the Kids Bus.

One mum, who had originally planned to use a bus for a trip with her two-year-old daughter Jiwoo, decided to repurpose the vehicle to provide a temporary shelter for children and parents.

“I was at a rally previously but found it difficult to change diapers and feed my child,” she explains. So she took it upon herself to set up this space. With support from citizens, the number of buses grew to three, and donations of diapers, formula, snacks, and other supplies poured in.

Park Hyun-jung, who used the Kids Bus at the rally, said: “Thanks to it, I was able to change diapers and escape the cold.”
