These disgusting crimes are only part of the problem, South Korea’s misogyny runs much deeper These disgusting crimes are only part of the problem, South Korea’s misogyny runs much deeper. Whilst it is all very well and good that these men are being fined and found guilty for their actions, the strength of the charges given are not fit for the crimes, the punishments being given are only a surface level way of tackling the problem and do not acknowledge the real seriousness of what is at play: violent misogyny. This year in May a male civil servant was given a fine of 3m won (£1,865) due to being found guilty of ejaculating into a female co-worker’s coffee cup six times during a period of over half a year. In 2019, one man was sentenced to a 500,000 won (£308) fine for covering a woman’s shoes in semen under the guise of ‘property damage’. Over the past few years, numerous incidents of this behaviour have come to light. Needless to say, this is not sufficient, the behaviour of these men goes much further than simple ‘property damage’.ĭespite semen terrorism only recently popping up in media following South Korean politicians seeking to criminalise the act, it is an issue that has been affecting the country for some time. This protest comes after a set of controversial court verdicts which have charged men committing this heinous crime with ‘property damage’. The disgusting act has become increasingly popular in South Korea, leading to a fight to make it a punishable sex crime. For those who are unaware of the phrase, semen terrorism is the act of men secretly ejaculating on the possessions of women. A term that I was unfamiliar with, like many I am sure, until recently.
