The Yonsei University festival scheduled for June 25, the 72nd anniversary of the Korean War, was eventually canceled.
However, netizens have mixed opinions.
Previously, Yonsei University decided to hold the festival for two days on the 24th and 25th.
Some pointed out that it was inappropriate to hold a cheering festival and a bar event on the day of the outbreak of the Korean War, and in the end, it was decided to cancel.
Upon hearing the news, the students expressed various opinions and debated.
Students opposed to the festival argued, 'Isn't it necessary to show the minimum courtesy to those who shed blood for the country?', while the students who wanted the festival said, 'The water gun show is also held on the same day, but it is too much to take issue with only the university festival. ', 'It's not that I don't want to commemorate, it's that linking the school festival to June 25 is an excessive frame'.
Netizens also have different opinions.
There are opinions that 'there is no reason for the whole country to fall into sorrow on June 25', while others point out that 'it is not understandable that the festival date was originally set on the date of the outbreak of June 25'.
