Lawmakers are addressing IVE Jang Won-young's growing "attitude" scandal.
On the 26th, Representative Jeon Yeo-ok wrote a blog post criticizing Mom Café members after leaked clips of Jang Won-young went viral leading to deep criticism over her "attitude" on community boards.
Rep Jeon wrote, "Mom Café has absolute power to close down cafes, restaurants, hospitals etc. the moment a negative post is shared. President Moon is to blame for creating this movement."
Jeon then shared a photo of President Moon meeting with Mom Café members across the country as well as a poster for the event. He wrote, "Here's a poster and pictures of Democrat Moon meeting with local mom cafés nationwide ahead of the presidential election."
At the time, Moon met with Mom Café members across the country and declared, "I'll become a president who supports feminists and female workers." After the election, many cited that mom cafes centered around women in their 30s and 40s became his representative support base online.
- [+10,873, -124] Mom Cafés are the problem! Anyone would be shocked if they were suddenly approached like that.. they're totally the main culprits!
- [+7,959, -49] Who wouldn't be shocked if someone randomly touched them? So just because she's an idol she should've managed her expressions?? Stop giving the rest of us moms a bad rep! You ahjummas are the ones instigating scandals, quit these cafes and live quietly!
- [+5,774, -34] It's natural that she flinched when some random on the streets touched her body?? Are we supposed to always side with chodings? Is this a comedyㅋㅋㅋㅋ?
- [+2,842, -22] Anyone would flinch if someone they don't know suddenly grabbed their arm. It's good of these Mom Café moms to think of their kids but please look at it from the victim's point of view too.
- [+2,795, -21] Mom Cafes are ruining our country, just look at the recent case where a teacher chose death.
- [+2,282, -105] Dog Mom Cafés are harmful to the public!
- [+2,092, -23] Teach your kids not to touch people's bodies without consent ㅠㅠ. I see kids tap teachers shoulders all the time to grab their attention.. I really hate it!
- [+2,034, -18] He grabbed her all of a sudden without warning? Idols are people too, she's not to blame here, what a strange group. The kid is in the wrong for not being taught how to politely approach someone.
- [+748, -5] Educate your kids properly! Parents should be teaching their kids not to touch others carelessly. So if it's a choding doing it, she should just accept it? Mom Café moms need to teach their kids better!!
- [+593, -1] Ah, the kid is definitely in the wrong... I understand now why teachers are having a hard time.
- [+570, -26] 99% of these comments are claiming it was natural she flinched but continue to circulate the clips and comment ㅋㅋ.
- [+467, -1] Aren't they embarrassed that their kid was rude to that level? The way these extreme moms are always putting the kid first is problematic! Fix the character of your kids or they're going to end up criminals!
- [+166, -1] That's a big kid ㅜㅜ I would've been shocked and avoided it too. Celebrities are people too ~ on stage and off.
