Disturbing footage of a man hitting and kicking his ex-girlfriend before chasing her down a street in central Seoul with a truck shocked South Korea in July and triggered a police 100-day action campaign to combat violence against women.

 

But a newly released study by the Korean Institute of Criminology has revealed that the assault in broad daylight in the South Korean capital, while extreme, was not an isolated incident of abuse.

 

The study, based on responses from 2,000 South Korean men, showed that 1,593, or 79.7%, had physically or psychologically abused a girlfriend while they were dating.  

 

About 71% of those who admitted a history of dating abuse said they had controlled their girlfriend’s activities through restricting their interactions with friends or family members, reported The Korea Herald.

 

Their controlling behaviour included calling to check who their partner was with, or stipulating how she dressed.

 

Of the 1,593, 37.9% admitted sexual harassment, 36.6% used psychological abuse and 22.4% physical violence.

 

About 23% said they had slammed a door or stamped on the ground in anger at their girlfriends, and about 100 men said they had bruised their partners or left them with small scars.

 

Lead researcher Hong Young Oh, told the Herald that the violent behaviour stemmed from deep-rooted patriarchy in South Korea.

 

 

“The high number of such actions show that the abusers themselves were not aware of or did not recognise their actions as dating abuse,†he said.

 

The results of the study tally with another survey conducted by the Korea Women’s Hotline that revealed that 61.6% of female respondents said they had been abused while dating.

 

The police force has pledged to work more closely with women’s organisations as part of a drive by the new government of President Moon Jae-in to create a safer environment.

 

The move comes amid criticism that law enforcement does not take dating abuse seriously enough. Under current laws, stalking is punishable with a light fine of just $90.

 

Wow! South Korea sounds like an amazing place to live!

lmao domestic abuse is serious but it's obvious you are trolling with that title. But ok keep playing dumb

LMFAOOO don't even start I'm getting heated now, I've actually never gotten angry over something on this website until I read this just now. It says 80% of Korean men. Are idols not a part of that shit or something? Over half this damn website are Oppapologistsâ„¢ so I just want them to know this.

news flash for yall: men all across the world are abusive! male violence is literally a global issue that affects women in every single country. 0u0plz.png 

 

while i agree that kpop fans should stop putting "their oppas" on a pedestal, as if they're somehow exempt of this violence, it's simply not fair to apply this to every single korean male because of some (clearly biased) study that defines abuse in an extremely vague and general way.

 

2000 test subjects is also nowhere near enough to make such a broad assumption.... idontthinksobetchplz.png

I honestly hate "studies" like these cause 2,000 people now count as all of korea?? also change the title if you want this to be taken seriously cause right now it just seems like you are making fun of domestic abuse which is not okay in the slightest and I'm not going to even bother going to your level and answering your "question" rolleyes.gif
