A famous American amusement park has been embroiled in a huge lawsuit over the gestures of an employee.
There are two families who filed a claim for damages against Universal Studios last month. These two families separately visited Universal Studios in 2019, and their 5-year-old and 6-year-old children of mixed race, respectively, took a commemorative photo with an employee wearing the disguise of a popular anime character. took a picture.
By the way, the employee wearing the doll mask is now visible in the circle, and he made OK fingers to his children and showed them.
The OK gesture has long been used as a sign of consent, but recently it has been argued that white supremacist groups are abusing it.
This is because if you make this OK shape downwards, the white power, that is, the first letter of the white power in English, W and P, look similar.
These families claimed that they suffered psychological shock, insults, and defamation, and demanded compensation of about 115 million won or more with 100,000 US dollars.
Universal Studios said it could not respond to the ongoing lawsuit, but said that the employee who made the gesture was fired.
