Due to a protest by the National Solidarity for the Elimination of Discrimination against Persons with Disabilities (Jeon Jang Yeon), a southbound Line No. 4 train passed Hyehwa Station without stopping on the morning of the 25th.

Seoul Metro announced at about 8:28 a.m. that "due to a rally and protest, Line No. 4 Hyehwa Station (southbound) trains are passing through without stopping." The pass-through ended at about 9 a.m., and service is now operating normally.

Starting around 8 a.m., Jeon Jang Yeon activists attempted to board trains at Hyehwa Station and faced off with police. During this, some southbound train service was delayed.

Jeon Jang Yeon has continued campaign activities on rush-hour subways, calling on the government to secure a budget for disability rights.
