May 23 marks the 9th anniversary of the passing of late President Roh Moo-hyun. A memorial ceremony honoring Roh was held at his grave in Bongha Village, Gimhae, South Gyeongsang Province. The photo captures visitors to the memorial paying their respects. Roh rose from an impoverished childhood to become a human-rights advocate before occupying the Blue House. The former president tragically passed away when he committed suicide in 2009.
