Rant about "True Education"
Sorry for the rant i just need to let this out lol.
I've just seen the news this story is going to get a live action and i'm straight up disgusted, if anyone wants to know why this story is banned from webtoon global for racism and that's not the only thing wrong with this story.
This is more of a me ick but the whole plot of the story is just "Beating children is actually okay and good" idc what stupid and over the top narrative the authors writes to make the ABUSE of children seem justified but that beliefs isn't going to help no one.
But wait there's more (literally copypasted from the comments under the story): "It seems like that arc was referencing a real news in Korea where a feminist teacher got exposed for enforcing female rights rules onto students' studies and received tremendous hate for it. The details coincides and the dates weren't too far off that incident. It wasn't a big deal until it was revealed that the whole thing was fabricated by male students to get her fired. The rules enforcement never happened and instead, male students spread that the teacher was feminist and radicals ended up bullying her into getting fired (you can check news on controversies about feminist teachers in korea, there was a #metoo movement back then, but Idt that relates to the webtoon). This in turn shone a bad light onto the author who used the topic to create a fictional scenario that painted feminist teachers into villains during a sensitive time. It didn't help that it was featured in the webtoon app after a female naver author was sexually harassed by a male naver author.(Man I was shocked at how many things was happening behind the scenes.)
It's similar to the racism incident where he referenced a specific korea district populated by black people and painted them as racists, calling them slurs when in actual fact the koreans were the ones discriminating against them." Good job Korean men for being the world biggest incels ig
This type of shit gets live actions but BLS and GLS (especially GLS) are snubbed??
i hate true education like cmon now it was a good concept but implemented weirdly, they couldve chosen to explore kids and teacher's impact on the no violence policy and if they really wanted to talk about kids taking advantage of this they couldve used a SUPER different route instead of making a military man beat the fuck out of kids
