South Korean lawmaker scolds female nominee to the country's antitrust body for not having a child.
SEOUL, South Korea — A South Korean lawmaker came under fire this week after he scolded a female nominee to the country's antitrust body for not having a child to fulfill her duty to the nation.
"Making remarks about marriage and birth to a nominee based on a gender at a confirmation hearing is an outright sexual discrimination during a hiring process and a serious violation of women's civil and labor rights," the Korean Women's Association United said in a statement.
