TL;DR

During the 25th Seoul Queer Parade, homophobic protesters displayed banners blaming homosexuality for Korea's downfall, but the banners were partially obscured by trees and infrastructure, humorously altering the message to support LGBTQ progressiveness. The event saw over 150,000 participants despite being denied permission to gather at Seoul Plaza.
