Recently, Andong Hahoe Village has been suffering from various "paraphrase terrorism."

Seo Kyung-duk, a professor at Sungshin Women's University, said today (14th), "We have received reports steadily, and we recently visited Hahoe Village in person to confirm that there are many graffiti everywhere." Most of the graffiti in Hahoe Village was Korean graffiti by domestic tourists, and sometimes graffiti left in foreign languages was found.

Andong Hahoe Village is a clan village where Pungsan Ryu (柳) has lived for generations, and it is also the place where Seo Ae Ryu Seong-ryong was born. It was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2010.Professor

Seo said, "At the end of last year, the incident of 'parachute terrorism' on the wall of Gyeongbokgung Palace shocked the whole people," adding, "The management of government agencies and local governments is also important, but above all, we need to improve citizenship."

He also emphasized, "We need to strengthen education related to cultural properties from elementary school, and strong punishment for damage to cultural properties."

"With the spread of K content around the world, many foreign tourists are flocking to experience Korean culture and history. Such graffiti will undermine the national image, he said, adding, "In order to show our great cultural properties, we must cherish and preserve cultural properties on our own."

Netizens who encountered this fact responded, "I'm so ashamed," "We need strong measures such as fines," "There is no concept," and "We have to pass on the full cost of restoration."
