More than 100,000 South Koreans are demanding the dismissal of a judge who reduced the prison sentence of a child rapist to three years.
Lee, identified only by his surname, was jailed in November for eight years for raping a 10-year-old child after making her drink an alcoholic beverage at his house in 2018.
The 35-year-old, who runs a private tutoring company, claimed the sex was "consensual" and that he believed the victim was much older than South Korea's age of consent, WHICH IS 13.

Speaking at the event, Rabbi Hershel Gluck said: “My parents came to this country in the late 1930s as child refugees. I have met children who have experienced terrible suffering and want to join their families here. The government has a moral duty to honour its promise to learn from the past and allow these children to find refuge in our country.”
