Twenty Five Twenty One Latest Episode Criticized For Showing Relationship with a Minor

-

 Twenty Five Twenty One is facing backlash after it's 10th episode aired on March 13.

On the latest episode, Baek Yi Jin (Nam Joo Hyuk) who is 23 years old at the time in the drama, confessed his love to Na Hee Do (Kim Tae Ri), who is a 19 year old student. 

Shortly after the broadcast, many viewers expressed their criticisms regarding how the drama is romanticizing a relationship with a minor.

Viewers said,
The production team should have reconsidered the scene as the media has an impact. 
I feel uncomfortable depicting a mutual love with a minor who still wears a school uniform. 
Why couldn't the show wait until after Kim Tae Ri graduates for a scene like this?

Do you agree with the netizens' concerns?

    Hypocrisy. There is nothing wrong with confessing your love and showing affection to someone as long as you don't use force. Besides, Hee do isn't a minor anymore.

    Hmmp....is 19 year old a minor in their country?I couldn't see anything wrong with that,they are just expressing themselves.and beside I believe that in a this times there are some who are in a relationship with that age.thats why there are rated or graded in every program to see that the vievers are guided in every scene and know what to expect...it's just that we have different opinion in every matter.

    Actually, it's not really bad to confess your love to the one who feel inlove with. Don't criticize such things! 19 years old is not a minor anymore because I am 19 years old too. Confessing your true feelings is not bad because you felt it. Don't criticize such things!
