Online commenters criticized parents who attended a Children’s Day event with visible tattoos.
On the 9th, a user posted in an online forum that they had seen several tattooed men at a Children’s Day event in Daejeon on the 5th.
Photos shared by the poster, identified only as A, showed men in short-sleeve shirts and shorts, with arms and calves densely covered in tattoos.
A wrote, \”Why flaunt tattoos in a place full of children? They don’t seem to know shame. Cover up.\”
He also wrote, \”Shouldn’t they be banned from Children’s Day venues?\” and urged, \”We should pass a law to bar ‘munsinchung’—a derogatory term for people with tattoos—from public spaces.\”
Most commenters sided with the poster.
They criticized the men in the photos, saying, \”Children inherit their parents’ shame,\” and calling them immature people who don’t understand how offensive and uncomfortable tattoos can be.
Others added that tattoos are meant to be displayed, arguing that if the men planned to cover them they wouldn’t have gotten them in the first place, and suggested the men’s behavior is unlikely to change.
