Human Rights Commission: "Prosecutorial Reform Dongyo Medley Is Not Subject to Investigation"

[Asia Economy Reporter Yoo Hyun-seok] The National Human Rights Commission of Korea dismissed a complaint claiming that the 'Prosecutorial Reform Children's Song Medley' uploaded on a YouTube channel had strong characteristics of child abuse, stating that it is not subject to investigation.

According to the Human Rights Commission on the 12th, Mr. A filed a complaint last October, alleging that the YouTube channel 'Jukwon Broadcasting' used children in the video as tools for political agitation.

However, the Human Rights Commission dismissed the case in March, stating, "Upon review, it does not fall under the scope of investigation as defined by the Human Rights Commission Act."

The National Human Rights Commission Act stipulates that human rights violations and discriminatory acts occurring in state agencies, local governments, schools, and the like are subject to investigation by the Commission. Previously, Jukwon Broadcasting stirred controversy by uploading videos on YouTube in which about ten youths sang children's songs such as 'Gom Se Mari' (Three Bears) and 'Santokki' (Mountain Rabbit) with lyrics changed to call for prosecutorial reform and criticize opposition parties and prosecutors.
