An aide to the People's Power legislator posted an article on his SNS to authenticate the no-mask, causing controversy.
Mr. A, one of the assistants of National Power member Choi Chun-sik, started writing on his SNS yesterday (12th) saying, 'I didn't wear a mask alone on the subway right now'.
Then he said, 'It's comfortable and good' and 'I didn't get the vaccine, but it doesn't matter if I die from Corona.
There have been no reports of it yet,' he wrote.
In another article, he said, 'I can't wear a mask anymore, so I can't live anymore because I'm frustrated.'
Mr. A has shown a critical stance on wearing a mask and vaccinations in the past, but the current guideline is that masks should always be worn indoors regardless of vaccinations.
Netizens' opinions were divided on Mr. A's actions.
While there were opinions that sympathized with Mr. A's claim, there were also criticisms such as 'it's premature' and 'don't encourage others'.
