Opposition leader Hwang Kyo-ahn was sent to hospital Wednesday night after eight days of hunger strike to stop President Moon Jae-in's push to pass some reform policies through the National Assembly, Hwang's officials said.

Hwang, chairman of the main opposition Liberty Korea Party, started the hunger protest eight days ago in a tent set up in front of the presidential office in central Seoul.
