성소수자에 폐쇄적인 한국...동성애자 수용도 OECD 중 하위권
It appears South Korea is still one of the most homophobic countries in the OECD.
A recent OECD report shows Korea scored 2.8 on a scale of 10 for accepting sexual minorities, ranking 32nd out of the 36-member bloc.
Though the score is a slight improvement from the previous report, it's still far below the OECD average of 5.1, raising concerns about discrimination against sexual minorities.
Iceland, meanwhile, ranked the highest with 8.3.
