Miniskirts to be Banned in South Korea as Overexposure Law comes into effect

Miniskirts could be banned in South Korea as a controversial 'overexposure law' comes into effect this week.

Those deemed to be overexposed in public will face a fine of 50,000 KRW (£30) under the new law.

But the law has been met with criticism after being passed by new president President Park Geun-hye at her first Cabinet meeting.

Celebrities from the Asian country have posted pictures of themselves wearing provocative clothing online, while others have suggested the law could signify a wave of authoritarian rule.

Opposition leaders also criticised the move, describing it as curtailing freedom of expression.

good move! thats true equality. u don't see men allowed into high end restaurants, clubs n work in short pants do u? u don't see men wearing microshorts casually in public or during stage performance right? unless a policy is launched to encourage all boys/men to expose with
microshorts in hot weather, otherwise I'm wholly against women taking advantage of miniskirt rights
