“In one of the closest elections in recent history, Yoon Suk-yeol bested liberal candidate Lee Jae-myung by 263,000 votes — a result many analysts see as the culmination of a backlash against the push for gender equality spurred by the MeToo movement.”
The People Power party, however, seems only marginally more fraught than its opponent, the Democratic Party.reports three major figures in the party died by suicide or were sentenced to jail after being accused of sexual misconduct and harassment.
While serious strides have been made in South Korean women’s fight for equality, the movement toward a brighter future will continue despite Yoon’s leadership. As 34-year-oldsaid, “Everyone knows that misogyny in Korea is a serious problem, and while it’s comforting to see change is occurring when I saw the election of a candidate who pledged misogyny, I knew we still have a long way to go.”
