▶ "No Competition" Special Military Military Service Exception

<Anchor>

When the Asian Games ended this year and the issue of fairness in the military service exception was controversial, the art world was on the cutting board at the time. So we covered the situation of the military service exception of the people who won in the international dance contest, but there were not a couple of nooks.

It is reporter Park Jae-hyun.

The Tangs International Dance Competition held in Germany was a competition where two top athletes were given special military service.

[Past Tantz International Dance Competition: We are an exempted concert, so we go to work hard and that is why we go out for the purpose. Everyone competes with the Korean people.]

In 2014, three Korean men became first in professional dancing.

The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism chose the ranking because only two of them will be given military service exemption.

I did the contest in the amateur category, not the professional one.

Qualification controversy Date The organizers of the contest announced a scorecard saying, "Mr. A has played in the amateur division, but he has received the same evaluation as the professional division."

In the score table, A was 17 points lower than the other two, and judges were different.

As the suspicion got bigger, the organizers announced a new scorecard after 20 days, saying it was real.

The first three people have the same score for the same judge.

However, two of the judges with names in the new score table denied the review.

"I did not judge Mr. A himself," he said.

[At that time, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism staff: it was unacceptable that the judges did not (judge)).

After eight months, the organizer announced that Grand Prix was the number one spot for all men and women.

The Ministry did not recommend Mr. A as an exception agent for his military service, which is considered to be a judgment that is not fair and objectivity.

Eventually, the court ruled that the decision of the Ministry was wrong.

"It is illegal to dismiss a person who refused to be appointed as an art worker because he was questioned about fairness and objectivity because he was awarded a joint prize." A was finally granted military service exemption.

[Tae Kyung Hae / National Defense Council (Right Future Party): There is no precedent in the case of award ceremony after congress. We have confirmed that our military service exemption system is being ruthlessly run by the organizers of the international competition.]

Despite the fact that the government does not have the authority to verify the results of the international arts competition, no matter how unfortunate it may be, it is still a matter of military service exemption.

▶ One week after the end of the competition ...? 'Competition' Actual Condition of Military Service

<Anchor>

Justice means justice and rightness. Today (23th), we are going to look at the urgency and urgency of this word of fairness in our society right now. In particular, I will tell you in turn the unequivocal cases of military service and employment that make our young people harder and harder. Let me start with a story of a man who received an award from the International Dance Competition followed by yesterday and received military service exemption.

Reporter Park Jae-hyun reported.

<Reporter>

The 34-year-old Helsinki International Ballet Competition.

The competition, which is held every four years, boasts world-class authority, but up to two top winners receive special military service in Korea.

In the 2016 men's dancers' contest, only the second and third places were selected without first place.

However, a week after the concert was over, organizers of the contest posted a notice on the website and sent a letter to the Korea Dance Association.

Mr. B, who had fallen out of the male dancers category, was ranked number one.

The two of them played together in the 'Fed Noodle' was the first prize, was a qualifying course to pick the finalist.

[Professor at Dance Department: In principle, you should not look at the situation at that time. I can not see that rule, but it's the one I made after it. In principle, there are plenty of possibilities.]

The certificate presented to Mr. B was signed by the chairman of the jury, unlike the other certificates with the signatures of all seven judges.

[Other dancers: It does not really matter that the rankings can change. International Competition International, how can this result? Who would have the power to take the initiative?]

Mr. B attended as a witness in the National Diet today.

[Tae Kyung Hahn / National Defense Council (Right Future Party): First prize is 8,000 Euros. How much did I receive?

[Mr. B: I received 1,000 euros.]

One thousand euros was equal to one-eighth of the first prize, the same level as the extra prize.

At that time, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism sent a questionnaire to the organizer, and the organizer sent a formal answer saying "Mr. B is the first and the judging process is judged by the judges."

The Ministry of Culture did not investigate further because of the precedent that the Ministry of Culture and Arts created at the Tangs Concour event was not authorized to verify the results of the convention, and Mr. B was given military service exemption.

Park Jae-hyun, who reported this, is here.

Park, I do not understand how this is possible in a world famous competition that suddenly becomes the first prize after the competition is over. How is this possible?

<Reporter>

I wonder if there was a shortage.

It is the message of the dancers that I met that I was able to look after the Korean male dancer to get a military service exception, and to be able to recognize it.

<Anchor>

I know that they have done it for military service except knowing each other. Then, I will go back to see what the reporter Park Jae-hyun met directly with the people of the dancers.

<Reporter>

The fact that a Korean male dancer gets the first or second place in the competition is exempted from military service is also known to foreign dancers.

A dancer who said he would listen if asked to do so.

[Dancer: 'I do not hurt my (foreign judge). And you Koreans invite me to Korea. Then, every time I invite you, you can earn 10 million won. I can not be. . ']

There is also testimony that he was offered to give first prize if he gave money in the competition held in Korea.

[Dance Student: That night, our teacher came to me and said, 'I can ride if I give you money.' 'It was like this because a child was suddenly unable to contact me.']

But most of the dancers were extremely alert for contact with the reporters.

If you cross a bridge, knowing who you are is a reality in the dance world. If you know that you have raised suspicions or problems, you will be disadvantaged.

[Dancer: (expose) You'll be bullied. I would not ask you to fit in at all. I can not afford it, I can not eat rice.]

This attitude was not different from foreign greetings.

Even the judges who said that "I did not judge the first prize" at the Tangs Competition in 2014 answered "I can not help" in a questionnaire sent by SBS.

[Pre-Competition Judge: I will not invite them if they become scandalous ... Our ballet (judges) pool is perfect. He probably will not answer.]

If the chain of silence is not cut off, suspicion and mistrust about the military service exception can not help but grow.

Q. What is the scale of the "special military service for arts"?

[Park Jae Hyun reporter: Yes, the arts military service exemption is to provide military service exemption if you win international convention in dance, classical music and Korean music. However, unlike the well-known field of physical education, the field of art is not well known for how people get and how they benefit. In order to receive military service exemption from physical education, it is required to win the 3rd place of the Olympic Games or more and the 1st place of the Asian Games. The art field is awarded second prize in 48 competitions listed on UNESCO. So, this Asian game has not yet been confirmed by the Military Manpower Administration, so there are a total of 18 people who received military service exceptions in physical education from 2015 until the end of July this year. But the field of art is about 75 times as many as four times that. Among them, the dance field is 37 people, about half.]

Q. How to secure fairness in 'arts military service exception'?

[Park Jae-hyun: Most of the contestants in the arts field do not have audiences but only 10 judges participate in the competition. As a result, artistry is a subjective area. Even so, at least the cases we reported yesterday are very serious cases, and the fact that the Korean government is not authorized to verify the adequacy is the biggest institutional loophole. Today, the government has decided to investigate the cases we reported in the National Military Service, and I think we should try to find out what kind of institutional complementary measures the majority can agree with through this process.
