Teachers protest bullying by parents after a recent suicide case in South Korea

After a 23-year-old primary school teacher committed suicide, teachers in South Korea have taken to the streets to seek more protection at work from overbearing parents. She had been subjected to a barrage of parental complaints, according to a diary that was discovered in her flat. In the weeks that followed, an increasing number of instructors have said that intrusive parents call them nonstop and on weekends, complaining endlessly and unfairly. A child protection regulation passed in 2014 that mandates that instructors who are accused of abusing children must immediately be suspended has sparked a protest by tens of thousands of educators in Seoul.
