Watching what happened between actor Kim Seon-ho and his ex-girlfriend, I came to think once again that a fair world without gender discrimination is important. The idea of seeing all men as potential perpetrators should disappear.

We must uphold the principle of presumption of innocence. Sex crimes that destroy a person’s life should be severely punished, and false accusations for the same reason that destroy a person’s life should also be severely punished.

It becomes a fair world only when the constitutional spirit that all citizens are equal before the law is protected.
