After singer Yoo Seung Joon recently officially apologized to the Korean public about his military evasion controversy 13 years ago, the Military Manpower Administration and The Justice Department both asserted that they still have no intention to lift his ban nor restore his Korean citizenship.
And it seems like most Korean citizens think similarly. 500 people participated in a recent poll regarding their opinion on whether they thought Yoo Seung Joon should be allowed back into Korea or not.
66.2% of the participants said they were against Yoo Seung Joon entering the country. 24.8% of the voters were in favor of allowing him back into Korea and 9% were not sure.
In terms of gender, 71% of males were against the idea, while 61.4% of the women voters were against it.
It appears that Korean men were less lenient towards Yoo Seung Joon, and understandably so, considering that they themselves either carried out their military service or will be soon.
In terms of age, 76.4% of those in their 20s, 52.3% of the voters in their 30s, 63.5% of those in their 40s, 69% of those in their 50s, and 70.2% of those in their 60s were opposed to the idea of the singer being allowed back in the country.
