Catholics in the South Korean capital Seoul joined a memorial Mass at the Yongin Park Cemetery to pay tributes to 6,000 donors who donated their bodies for scientific purposes in the last 55 years.
This annual commemoration takes place during the third week of November, a month dedicated to the departed souls in the Catholic Church.

The medical school states that as of now 36,000 volunteers have registered to donate their bodies as cadavers for educational and research purposes after death.
