   Chung Sun-sin, a senior prosecutor-turned-laywer, has recently withdrawn himself from the head of the National Office of Investigation under the National Police Agency over an abrupt controversy about his son's school bullying history at high school. The Yoon Suk Yeol administration is pushing qith an extraordinary measure on school bullying and violence based on the U.S.-style zero tolerance on bullying, which is to have school bullying records be reflected in college admissions and job findings. Up until now, the perpetrators' school bullying records or the history of going through rehabilitating procedures for a delinquent act should be kept sealed and not be revealed when they apply for college or job openings. However, the stigmization penalty will only worsen the situation as it mainly focuses on punishment, not prevention and it can leave lifetime scars on the victims. Many experts say that imposing the stigma on school bullying for striping bulliese of their chances to get into college or get a job is a "double punishment," ruining the life of a person for their school time misdemeanors, and it is not as effective as measures to help the aggressors repent and convert to become a better person. Once the harm is done, quick prevention for the victims of the school bullies is the most important thing, so that it can halt the vicious cycle of the victims' getting additional damage from the bullies' lack of repent and corrective actions for the perpetrator. Juvenile offenses should not haunt the rest of their lives and the government should come wiht more thoughtful outlines on preventing school bullies.
