- [+1,307, -18] The government destroys the hopes of its people~~
- [+1,192, -6] Don't just qualify anyone for benefits..shouldn't sex criminals and violent offenders be ineligible? Imagine working hard paying taxes for 20 to 30 years only to see your money thrown away on sex offenders. Who would want to work diligently anymore??
- [+773, -15] I barely earn 120 a month on my own..how on earth is this ba$tard getting 1.2 million??? Why is the government closing their eyes on something so ridiculous??
- [+425, -6] Ah..the tax I worked so hard to pay is being wasted like this. I'm not going to pay taxes anymore!
- [+175, -0] My husband caught the corona so he's no longer working and we barely earn a living with just half the wages. And this rape criminal is out free getting 1.2 million won a month of our money? The poor victim that's disabled for life didn't even get this.
- [+105, -0] Korea is a paradise for criminals. You can r*pe a 9 yr old girl and rupture all her organs and still be able to get 1.2 million won for free from the government even if the victim has to wear a feedbag for life. Who's going to obey the law in the future?!
- [+54, -0] Ah...this is seriously too much. Salary workers barely earn 1.2 million and we've been pouring our money into the national pension for 30 years. And you're giving that Cho Doo Soon ba$tard that's not even human 1.2 million??? a month?? What a f***ing world this is..
