South Korean opposition leader discharged from hospital

South Korean opposition leader Lee Jae-myung was discharged from Seoul National University Hospital on Wednesday after being stabbed in the neck last week.

Lee told a press conference that the war-like politics of killing and eliminating opponents should be ended, expressing his hope that his incident could become an opportunity to end the politics of hatred, and restore the politics of mutual respect and coexistence. Lee was stabbed in his left neck by a man during a visit to the southeastern port city of Busan on Jan. 2nd.
