Korean government ends pilot strike

The South Korean government has ordered the striking pilots of Korean Airlines to return to work.

The pilots, who are seeking higher wages, have agreed to comply.

Pilots at Asiana Airlines, another Korean carrier, went on strike for 25 days earlier this year. They, too, were ordered back to work by the Korean government.

Information about the strikes and their economic impact on Korean commerce are detailed in an article in the International Herald Tribune.
