Pope beatifies South Korea's Catholic martyrs

Pope Francis has beatified 124 Christian martyrs in the South Korean capital, and challenged Christians on the values they may be willing to die for in an increasingly materialistic and globalised world. The Pope who's on a five day tour of South Korea, payed homage the 124 Koreans who refused to renounce Christianity in the 18th and 19th centuries. Francis said the martyrs' courage, charity and their rejection of the rigid social structures of their day were an inspiration for people today. Al Jazeera's Harry Fawcett reports from Seoul.
