Thousands of citizens marched with candles and shouted anti-American songs in downtown Seoul, mourning the deaths of two teenage girls struck and killed by a U-S armored vehicle in June. Earlier the crowds attended a rally held at the Gwanghwamun. intersection and demanded revisions of the Status of Forces Agreement which they believe put South Korea at a disadvantage. Protest rallies were also held in Busan, Gwangju, Daegu and Daejon. Organizers say they'll stage another massive protest rallies across the nation drawing one million people on New Year's Eve.
