On Memorial Day, June 6, a moment of silence will be observed nationwide at 10:00 a.m. with sirens sounding for one minute.


The Ministry of the Interior and Safety announced that sirens will sound across the country for one minute at 10:00 a.m. on June 6 to mark the 71st Memorial Day ceremony.


This moment of silence, accompanied by the sirens, is intended to honor and remember the noble patriotism of the patriotic martyrs and fallen heroes who devoted themselves to protecting the nation and its people. The sirens will sound simultaneously nationwide so that all citizens can participate in the moment of silence wherever they are.



Jang Han, Director of Civil Defense at the Ministry of the Interior and Safety, stated, "The sirens sounded on this day are not an air-raid warning signaling an enemy attack, so there is no need to be alarmed. When the sirens sound, we ask all citizens to pause their activities and join in a solemn one-minute moment of silence."
