South’s Korea incoming president, Yoon Suk Yeol, demonizes feminism, blames women for the country’s low birth rate and denies the existence of gender inequality. His campaign — which capitalized on the politics of grievance — has drawn comparisons to former U.S. president Donald Trump. So much so that he is also known as K-Trump.
This week, we hear from the women who are fighting for their voices, rights and safety and explore the roots of the country’s anti-feminist movement.
Featuring:
Jieun Choi, South Korean journalist.
Haein Shim, artist and activist of Seoul-based feminist group Haeil.
