Today is the funeral for former Korean President Roh. He killed himself this past weekend near his home at Bongha. The funeral is taking place in Seoul and is being broadcasted via tv, radio, and internet. School has more or less stopped for the day so both teachers and students can watch the service.
Emotions are pretty high at school with both teachers and students crying while watching the service. Several teachers said they felt Roh was like a father to them and find his death hard to deal with.
