This topic is trending because it touches on a sensitive and growing social issue in Korea: the increasing number of young adults struggling to find employment and become independent. The professor's direct counter-argument to a common 'tough love' sentiment has sparked a fierce debate about societal responsibility versus individual accountability.

Right, they have a safety net (parents). People say cut off all support and kick them out, but if you do that, they'll just make a 'big decision' (euphemism for suicide).
Do you think it's only cases of them killing themselves? The cases where they *don't* do that are even scarier.
If you kick them out, they'll definitely do *something* lmaooo
That 'something' could also be making a 'big decision,' you know? lol
Big decision or whatever, that's just their blackmail. They need to be made to do *something*.
The problem is there are also jerks who just take advantage of all the support and keep slacking off.
The real problem is that 'something' includes crime and suicide.
90% of Korea's social problems are already predicted by Japan, who's 10-20 years ahead, but everyone just ignores it and acts like they've never seen it before, not preparing at all lol.
It feels like they're trying all sorts of crazy things just to overcrowd prisons.
You mean the criminal cases among the 'not that' cases, right? Those kinds of kids just do what they were going to do anyway once their safety net (parents) disappears.
