SEOUL � Members of the U.S. Forces Korea community have been warned to avoid the areas around the Korean War Memorial on Saturday because of a demonstration slated to take place there between 3 and 5 p.m.

According to an announcement on the USFK Web site, the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions and a group known as Pyong Tong San will be in the area protesting the Key Resolve/Foal Eagle exercises.

The announcement said the groups will march from the War Memorial to the area near Yongsan�s Gate 19.

The announcement said the demonstration was expected to be peaceful, but warned USFK members to avoid the areas, and mass transit around them, because "there is a potential that these gatherings may trigger unexpected violence."
