- Participants of a gay pride march wave a rainbow flag as they stand before a police cordon set up to keep out anti-gay Christian activists, in Seoul on June 28, 2015. Thousands of participants of South Korea’s annual gay pride parade marched across central Seoul, with many celebrating the US Supreme Court’s historic decision allowing same-sex couples to wed. Gay and transgender Koreans live largely under the radar in a country that remains deeply conservative about matters of sexual identity and where many still regard homosexuality as a foreign phenomenon. Thousands of Christian activists stood behind police barriers to wave banners and chant slogans at those taking part, condemning what they called an attempt to turn the South Korean capital into “Sodom and Gomorrah.” (Ed Jones/AFP/Getty Images)
