Korean Women with Short Hair Show Support for Beaten Convenience Store Worker

This was a horrible crime that happened to the woman just trying to do her job at a convenience store:

This image captured from X, also formerly known as Twitter, shows an ongoing campaign in which women with short hair share their photos, which began after a female part-timer in her 20s, who was working at a convenience store, was assaulted by a man in his 20s simply because of her short hair.

Should women with short hair be labeled as feminists? And do feminists harm men?

Such questions, which sound a bit peculiar, have been raised in Korea, once again, following a recent incident, in which a female part-timer in her 20s, who was working at a convenience store, was assaulted by a man in his 20s simply because of her short hair. 

The incident immediately led to an online campaign encouraging women with short hair to share their photos under #women_shortcut_campaign.

According to police, the assailant was caught assaulting the part-timer at the convenience store in Jinju, South Gyeongsang Province, on Saturday. The man also assaulted a male customer in his 50s who was trying to stop the attack.

At the time of the attack, the attacker said to the victim, “You must be a feminist as you have short hair. The feminist should get punished,” according to the police.

I have never seen anyone who was actually insane, but that guy sure seems to fit the bill.

Was the assailant an actual Korean or foreign born? Was he a member of a Middle-Eastern religion?

I ask because the article reads like it was written by a communist intent on destroying South Korea’s army, driving a wedge between men and women, and lacked the demographics necessary to understand the attack.

In the USA, such articles were usually written to cover up crimes committed by one particular demographic.

In Korea, the attacker, while not always shown, was usually identified by surname and a poor photo. This article concentrated on the freedom of women to get unattractive haircuts.

Simply saying “a man in his 20s” is not enough. Unless the intent is to call all Korean men bastards.

And where were you when this terrible attack took place? Did they arrest the right male, I wonder.
