Korea Queer Festival

Thousands marched through central Seoul today in what organisers described as South Korea's biggest annual gay pride parade, with many celebrating the US Supreme Court's historic decision allowing same-sex couples nationwide to wed.

Organisers of South Korea's annual gay pride festival vowed today to push ahead with a planned parade in downtown Seoul, despite a police ban and protests from conservative Christian groups.
