‘Men don’t know why they became unhappy’: the toxic gender war dividing South Korea

‘Men don’t know why they became unhappy’: the toxic gender war dividing South Korea

The article discusses the growing problem of toxic masculinity in South Korea, which has become a "ground zero" for misogyny in the hypermodern, connected society. It describes an incident in Jinju in 2023, where a young man violently assaulted a woman working at a convenience store, claiming that he was angry at feminists and that they "deserve to be beaten". The article suggests that this toxic gender war is a global phenomenon, but is particularly virulent in South Korea, and that other countries can learn from this example. The article highlights the need to address the underlying issues of toxic masculinity and the growing divide between genders in South Korea and other parts of the world.
