In Korea,
the world of K-POP, Korean Pop Music
K-POP is becoming more and more popular around the world.
In this way, I am very proud of my country, Korea.
On the other hand,
Inhumane Coercive Conversion Program of CCK in Korea, is a disgrace to our country, South Korea.
Few would think Ji-in Gu's tragedy occurred in the home of K-POP, South Korea.
So, I feel very ashamed this Coercive Conversion Program of CCK in Korea.
Above all, what I don't understand, the Korean government remains silent.....
Coercive conversion programs are literally programs through which people are forced to convert their religion.
There are no coercive conversion programs in Christianity, which hold to God's teachings. "Coercive" means to force someone to do something against their will under pressure, religious conversion means to change one's religion from one to another, such as from Buddhism to Christianity and "coercive programs" here refers to programs that are forced upon people.
Such coercive conversion program in Korea!!!
Why is the Korean government letting this happen?
Why???
