Kirk, 31, who helped amplify Republican President Donald Trump's agenda to young voters with often inflammatory rhetoric focused on issues such as gender and immigration, was shot in the neck on Wednesday at a speaking event at a Utah university.
“The phenomenon of young people, especially men, turning conservative is occurring simultaneously across multiple continents,“ Kirk told the audience, who waved their phones and chanted ‘USA’ as he entered the stage to an elaborate pyrotechnic display.
The event also included a worship concert, a session on “How Christians Can Lead the World” and a video message from American diaper company Everylife, which says it has a “pro-life mission” and urged young South Koreans to “make more babies”.
Opinion polls show the gender divide is particularly stark in South Korea, where the liberal Democratic Party wrested back power after the conservative former president was removed from office and jailed over a bungled attempt to impose martial law.
After Seoul, Kirk travelled to Tokyo where he spoke at a symposium hosted by the upstart Sanseito party, which made its political breakthrough in a July upper house vote warning about a “silent invasion” of immigrants.
The party’s leader, Sohei Kamiya, said he was “stunned and heartbroken” at the news of Kirk’s death in a post on X on Thursday, calling him a “comrade committed to building the future with us”.
Speaking this week on his podcast about his Asia trip, Kirk said: “The same things we have been fighting for here - whether it be lawfare in South Korea or mass migration in Japan - this is a worldwide phenomenon.”
