Korea’s debate over classroom disruptions is so urgent that a vigilante-style Netflix drama is shaping policy, prompting Gyeonggi Province education superintendent-elect Ahn Min-seok to cite the series and emphasize the need to protect teachers' authority and students' right to learn.
Ahn appeared on Korean broadcaster CBS Radio on Tuesday to discuss the hit series "Teach You a Lesson."
Noting the Netflix series' popularity, Ahn said he met the minister of education Monday.
"The minister told me he watched up to the fifth episode. I think it is time for the ministry to make a decision as well," Ahn said.
