Local governments or public institutions have the obligation to try to protect the social minorities from unreasonable discrimination or oppression, and to eradicate unreasonable prejudice and hatred against the minorities during the process of resolving confrontations and conflicts due to differences in views between groups. Moreover, holding and participating in a queer culture festival is an exercise of the rights protected under the freedom of assembly and association and freedom of expression. Even if it is necessary to mobilize administrative power to manage 'social conflict' as an opposition rally against this, it is an essential social cost required to satisfy the constitutional obligations of the state and local governments to protect the social minorities. In addition, the local governments need to take a clear response to the propaganda and instigation of discrimination by intentionally spreading prejudice against LGBTI groups and by expanding and reproducing hatred and discrimination. These hate speeches and actions violate the rights of others and fixes the structure of discrimination in Korean society, and they are responsible for the costs incurred by ‘social conflict.’ However, the administrative actions and responses of the local governments that appeared in 2022 raised concerns on whether various institutions of local governments are rather discriminating with hate speeches, rather than solving problems and protecting human rights. 191
