Police and officials clash over LGBT event in South Korea's Daegu.

Officials in South Korea's Daegu city clashed with police over an annual LGBT pride festival, which they tried to stop from taking place. The festival was allowed to proceed after a court ruled that freedom of expression was as important as freedom of business. Daegu's conservative Mayor Hong Joon-pyo supported the motion to ban the festival, but the court sided with the festival host. The clashes began when hundreds of officials stopped trucks of festival organizers from entering the main venue.
