not able to apply for the school's admission plan. Thus, the father of Mr. Yun filed a complaint alleging that restricting male students' admission to beauty art high school is an unreasonable discrimination based on gender, thus calling for its rectification. In response, the accused argued that as there exist other beauty art high schools selecting male students in Seoul, the victim's not being able to be admitted to this school does not fundamentally blocking opportunities for him to receive beauty art technical education. The Commission deemed that it is difficult to find the value and purpose of specifying the recipients of education to women in the school's establishment philosophy and basic education other than providing "whole education to foster professional beauty personnel," and that, although education curriculum for beauty art department has been skills traditionally designed for women, limiting recipients of education to female students is no more than social preconceptions on gender roles, and that the reality where the ratio of males who already work or wish to work in the beauty industry is steadily rising should be also taken into account. Moreover, difficulty in providing school guidance for male students is an issue that the school should resolve in terms of operational methodology and, despite this obstacle, other beauty art high schools still do not exclude the selection of male students. In this light, the Commission considered that it is difficult to identify reasonable causes for the accused to fundamentally restrict opportunities for male students to be admitted to the school. It also deemed that, even though there are other beauty art high schools selecting male students, disadvantages of being restricted opportunities to choose educational institutions of the victim are not considered trifle, given the characteristics of beauty art high schools whose scope of choice is relatively smaller than general schools. Accordingly, the Commission recommended to the accused to revise relevant school regulations and admission qualifications not to limit qualification for freshmen to female students. 90 Part II.
