I take time to salute the brave few survivors, change makers, some adapting and demonstrating to toughen up, their case is work hard, and campaign for change. Globally Korea's government tackles the gender gap, the league table comparisons are made, I turn away in embarrassment. Many focus on the "David problem with women", no accountability or individual responsibility, ambassadors and business champions are created and further attempts to stabilise the pain.
As the day fades, how realistically are these women making a difference to the forgotten voices? The debates come with some division and heated discussions on gender disparities, quotas, political shift for women, improve representation, a call to change the laws, support victims, manage expectations, struggles, and resources. The financial impact too is put into the mix, public awareness is only one aspect, collectively for women to excel, we need to all work cohesively from the government, private sector and society, a day of celebrations is far from the reality.
