The report discusses a string of serious incidents involving teachers being assaulted by students in Seoul, South Korea. A teacher was assaulted by a student in their class, causing a three-week injury. The teacher has since experienced further harassment and was told by the student that their actions constituted child abuse. This incident has sparked a petition calling for severe punishment for the student, which has gathered about 3,000 signatures.
The teacher's husband posted about the incident on an online community, leading to public outcry and the gathering of signatures for the petition. The teacher has also faced hardship, with the student's father accusing the teacher of child abuse for disciplining the student.
Another teacher, who had been teaching for only two years, made an extreme choice, leading to shock and concern among other teachers. There were speculative posts on social media suggesting the teacher made the extreme choice due to malicious complaints from parents, which the school denied.
The report also touches on the issue of child abuse accusations in the education system, with many cases reported as abuse even when it was not. This has led to a fearful teaching system where teachers are constantly on the defensive.
The report concludes with a discussion on the declining authority of teachers, with some arguing that it is a violation of teachers' human rights. There is a call for more legislation or measures to protect the relational characteristics of educational relationships.
