Korean Court Suspend Vaccine Passport System for Korean Cram Schools

Hagwon owners are probably breathing a sigh of relief right now because the vaccine requirement was probably going to put many of them out of business:

A notice on vaccine pass requirement is removed from a study cafe in Seoul on Jan. 4, 2022, after the Seoul Administrative Court suspended its enforcement for private educational facilities. (Yonhap)

South Korea on Tuesday suspended the vaccine pass mandate for cram schools and other private education facilities following a court ruling that the system infringes on people’s right to learn.

The Seoul Administrative Court ordered the suspension of a rule that requires adults to show proof of vaccination before accessing private institutes, public study rooms, study cafes and vocational training institutions, pending a trial on a complaint that parents and the industry have filed against the measure.

This is only the first step in a process involving higher courts and government appeals… and it just requires a single step in the process for the fix to be in.

The people pushing this have already decided the outcome. Courts, facts, ethics, science, emotions, protests, collateral damage, etc., are speed bumps and not roadblocks… and are not part of their considerations.

The only way this will end is when people make it end.

Every history book is the same.
