(Clearwisdom.net) In order to better explain the facts to all levels of the Korean Government, media, human rights organizations and the Korean people, Korean Dafa practitioners began their national truth clarification tour on June 28^th, 2003.

At 11:00 a.m. on June 28^th, Dafa practitioners from Seoul, Daejeon, Busan and other cities gathered in Busan Olympic Park, across the street from the Chinese Consulate. After practicing the Dafa exercises, sending forth righteous thoughts, and a brief ceremony, the practitioners started out on their major route, from Busan to Seoul. Dafa practitioners from Busan, Ansan, Changwon and other cities are responsible for the western route. They will tour cities along the west coast, including Gwangju, and arrive in Seoul on July 20th to participate in the "7.20" Truth Clarification Activities. Due to it being a much longer route, the east coast practitioners began their tour in March. They are traveling to east coast cities, to arrive in Jeju and finally reach Seoul.

For most of the tour, the practitioners travel on foot. Along the way they clarify the truth, distribute flyers and collect signatures to rescue fellow practitioners. When they arrive in a city, together with local practitioners, they clarify the truth about Falun Dafa and the persecution to the local government, the media, human rights and other civil organizations, as well as to the local people, from all angles and on different levels. They are trying to help them understand the evil character of Jiang's regime and bring the magnificence of Falun Dafa to the people around the country. Practitioners traveling the middle route walked until 8:30 p.m. the first day. Two local police officers guided Dafa practitioners and provided a lot of help. They walked a long distance with the practitioners and, before they left, helped them find a hotel.

After a long day of walking, fellow practitioners had dinner, and then began to study the Fa, share their experiences, and plan the following day's trip.
