[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bong-ju] Professor Seo Min of Dankook University, co-author of the 'Black Book on Cho Kuk,' stated, "K-Quarantine is nothing more than a joint creation of the regime bastards who only speak up when it suits them and the hardcore Moon Jae-in supporters (Daekkaemun) who fawn over the regime."

On the 7th, Professor Seo posted a blog entry titled '[Reality Check] The Truth About K-Quarantine,' criticizing the government's measures against the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).

He wrote, "Since they spent even 100 billion won on publicity to boast about it, other countries might have followed K-Quarantine, but unfortunately, no country has done so, so I am revealing the truth."

Professor Seo pointed out, "The first reason K-Quarantine is considered successful is that the government takes credit for what went well, and blames the people for what went wrong."

He added, "The reason why Asian countries, including ours, generally do well in quarantine is that the people actively cooperate with government policies," and explained, "Moreover, our country has doctors specialized in treating many patients."

He also said, "However, the Moon Jae-in administration attributed all these achievements to themselves, and the Daekkaemun praised Moon as if he were King Sejong. When the number of COVID-19 patients surged, even if the government distributed dining vouchers just before and insisted that daily life could resume, the spread of COVID-19 was ultimately due to selfish citizens."

He mentioned that the government and others "criticize countries that did better than us first," citing countries like Taiwan and New Zealand, which implemented strong quarantine and lockdown measures early on and achieved good results. They belittle these achievements by making excuses such as 'small population,' 'low population density,' or 'island nation.'

Professor Seo also claimed that the government is "inciting with numbers," arguing, "They incited by saying countries with fewer COVID-19 cases than us simply conducted fewer tests."

He cited data from an online community supportive of President Moon, comparing confirmed cases per million tests, stating, "Our country did fewer tests than others."

Regarding the case where 20 employees at a call center in Cheonan, Chungnam, were infected in a cluster, he said, "This indicates many mild or asymptomatic infections, and if more tests are conducted, more confirmed cases can be found."

He also said the government uses a "sour grapes strategy" when confronted with clear mistakes.

Professor Seo emphasized, "The only solution to ending COVID-19 is vaccines, so we must secure vaccines, but our country failed to do so because it was busy self-praising K-Quarantine. The government and Daekkaemun use the strategy of saying, 'Pfizer and Moderna vaccines are probably unsafe.'"

He continued, "They promote outdated achievements," pointing out, "Now that COVID-19 diagnostic kits are no longer in the spotlight, the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety creates promotional materials claiming '70% of the world's diagnostic kits are Korean-made,' which is a lie."

Although the promotional posters make it seem like Korea controls 70% of the global diagnostic kit market, the truth is that Korea has exported kits to about 170 out of 240 countries, which is different from producing 70% of the kits in circulation.

He added, "If you lie too much, the line between truth and falsehood starts to blur, and eventually, you begin to believe your own lies. This is exactly the stage Moon Jae-in has reached."

Finally, Professor Seo sarcastically quoted an article where President Moon said, "The whole world is paying attention to our college entrance exam; if it goes well, K-Quarantine will shine even more," and commented, "How about that? K-Quarantine, pretty easy, right? It would be great if it spread worldwide." He added hashtags saying, "Enough already," and "Just seeing K makes me nauseous."
