The KCTU congress adopted a resolution that if the Constitutional Court dismisses the impeachment case of President Park Geun-hye, KCTU will go on a general strike immediately. It also declared to organize a second 'grand labor struggle' to realize the minimum hourly wage of 10,000 won(US$8.70), to eliminate the irregular forms of employment, to disband the conglomerates and to attain the full guarantee of three basic labor rights.
