Please provide the analysis of current situation by the Government and any measures to address the serious misogyny/hate crime issue in the Korean society. Issue 9: Online sexual violence Current situation 44. The Republic of Korea is no exception when it comes to the sexual harassment or assault on the Internet including Social Network Sites that are being reported worldwide. In the cases of online sexual assault, it is difficult to directly confirm the damage as the assaults are perpetrated secretly in many cases. Countermeasures are needed since the current law does not allow legal punishment. 45. According to the 「2016 Crime Analysis」by the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office, the online sexual assaults such as the ‘Crime of Obscenity Using Telecommunication Medium’ and ‘Crime of Taking Photos Using Cameras (known as “hidden camera crimes”)’ have significantly increased in the past ten years while the rates of rapes and indecent acts by force have not had notable changes in numbers. Particularly, the ‘Crime of Taking Photos Using Cameras’ have increased most dramatically from 3.6 per cent of all sexual violence cases in 2006 to 23.9 per cent in 2015, showing a sevenfold increase in the past ten years. 14
