Frightening...

"An exit poll showed only 34% of women in their 20s marked Yoon on their ballot paper, compared with 59% of men in their 20s, and 53% of those in their 30s.

Kim Hye-yoon, a 34-year-old woman from Gwangju, said she felt 'bitter' at the result. 'Everyone knows that misogyny in Korea is a serious problem, and while it’s comforting to see change is occurring, when I saw the election of a candidate who pledged misogyny, I knew we still have a long way to go,' she says."
