The dynamic between LGBTI paragoers, anti-gay protters, and the police was most notably exemplified at the gural sister event to the SQCF, the Incheon Queer Culture Ftival. The protts layed the event’s start—a 20-mute pri para—by several hours, and once began, 300 paragoers were physilly blockad by nearly 1, 000 anti-gay protters.
