On the 19th, Rainbow Action stated, "Mosaic censoring the same-sex kiss scene is no different from telling viewers nationwide that homosexuality is inappropriate, which is discriminatory," and added, "We submitted a petition to the Human Rights Commission yesterday."
Rainbow Action also requested the Human Rights Commission to establish measures to prevent discrimination against sexual minorities in the process of SBS's programming, production, editing, and broadcasting in the future.
