Mote Syndrome?
My feeling is that the whole society of Korea is suffering from perfectionist complex. They can't stand any legal speck, nor tolerate any blemish of others. Hours and days keep going wrangling over the legality, justification and rationality of a shady behavior or remark of a public figure, in the press, in the broadcasting studios and in the online media.
Why are they so controversial over nothing? Is that because they are the gentlemen and ladies of high moral caliber? No way. In fact, the other way round. The nation is full of robbers and thiefs, con-men and corrupt politicos.
Fact is that they are infested with social maladies, say, mote syndrome. They are eager to see motes in another's eyes, but they do not or refuse to see their own. They are so soft on themselves and so harsh on the others. Which testifies to a sign that society is sick.
