Yo-u-hoe (Association of Women Friends) was a Korean women's organization, founded in 1899.
The purpose was to fight discriminating Confucian practices such as gender segregation and concubines. It hosted a famous sit-in demonstration at the Toksu Palace in protest against the traditional male privilege custom of concubinage.[1]
