Video footage from the event shows that during Yun’s speech, a student in a graduation gown and bachelor’s cap shouted “Restore the R&D budget” while wearing a mask, and a presidential security guard clamped his hand over his mouth to restrain him, while several security officers grabbed him from his seat, lifted his limbs, and dragged him out of the venue.
In other videos, graduates can be seen with in-ears in their ears as they are carried out of the ceremony.

[theqoo] KAIST’S REP TOLD ‘INEWS24’ “IT HAPPENED BRIEFLY BUT THE GRADUATION CEREMONY IS GOING ON WITHOUT INCIDENT. THE STUDENTS ARE SPREADING BUT NOTHING HAPPENED”
According to social media posts by attendees of the ceremony, a graduate, at President Yoon’s speech at the ceremony was restrained by security guards and escorted out of the ceremony while protesting.
The graduate reportedly stood up and protested against Yoon, demanding that the research and development (R&D) budget be restored.
A spokesperson for KAIST told iNews24: “It happened briefly, but the graduation ceremony is going on without incident. The students are scattering, but nothing happened” the university explained.
“There was a disturbance at the KAIST degree ceremony that President Yoon attended this afternoon,” the presidential office said in a notice, adding, “The presidential guard took steps to separate the disturbers in order to ensure the safety of the guards and establish order at the event. This was necessary in accordance with the law, regulations, and Secret Service principles.”
