I. What happened since April 2020 in Korea?



            !e Gangnam district in Seoul, South Korea is well known
            for the famous YouTube video “Gangnam Style” and the horse
            dance in it. For the period of May 2020 - April 2022, students,
            housewives, professors and o"ce workers who do not know
            each other have been gathering there on almost every weekday
            at Gangnam. !ey have forgotten about the horse dance.
            Wearing black out#ts and holding black umbrellas in their
            hands, they have been holding numerous rounds of street
            protest called “Black Street Demonstration.” It is a series of
            protests against alleged fraud in the general parliamentary
            election that happened in April 2020 in Korea. Reasonable
            suspicions have been raised strongly by citizen experts that
            the results of the vote count were manipulated by certain
            individuals or power.


            !e evidence is proli#c. As con#rmed by top-level experts
            in statistics and mathematics, the statistical results of early
            voting derived from the April 15th election were unnaturally
            uniform and regular, which is paradoxical. In most electoral
            districts, the number of early votes were consistently about
            10% higher than regular votes for the candidates of the then
            left-wing ruling party, whereas it was consistently about
            10% lower for the candidates of the then right-wing main
            opposition party. According to the statistical analysis made by
            Professor Walter Mebane at the University of Michigan who
            is one of the authorities on detecting electoral fraud, 7.26%
            of the vote was estimated to be made by ballot stu"ng. As
            a result, almost all electoral districts where the ruling party
            won by a small di$erence to the opposition party would be
