On Thursday, December 15 over 1,000 Korean farmers left Victoria Park on what started as an ordinary march. However, as the farmers--wearing knee pads and gloves as well as their trademark beige vests and straw hats--lined up, the entire procession split into smaller groups of around thirty.

In synchronization, one group of would farmers drop to their knees, placing their hands and heads on the asphalt in a bow before standing up and then bowing again.The next group behind would follow suit, creating a ripple-like effect as farmers fell and rose in waves.
