Minors will soon be subject to costume regulations when they go on air, said the Korea Communications Standards Commission Tuesday.
The commission stated on its website that it will push for a new rule to regulate revealing clothing for teen and child performers in order to control exposure.
“Broadcasters must pay attention to and refrain from excessively exposing female minors during program recordings. Overly suggestive screen shots of girl groups composed of a large number of minors must also be banned,” said the revised bill.
The commission also decided to issue warnings or even stop a program from being aired if the broadcasters do not abide by the new revisions.
“We made the decision to go forward with the act because it has turned into a significant social issue in that such actions or scenes could damage the psychological state and characteristics of children and teenagers,” it said.
The KCSC decision is likely to trigger strong protests here and overseas from fans of the country’s many girl bands, according to industry watchers.
This is not the first time the commission acted to protect underage performers. In August of last year, the commission gave a warning to singer Hyun Ah, who was then a minor, because of the excessive sexual overtones of her dance moves.

Date: 2012-09-25 03:06 pm (UTC)Phew, for a moment I thought all the sexy times were over. Good thing we can still perv on the sexy moves of the boys~
On a serious note, I can see where this is coming from, with skirts getting exesively shorter by the day, showing more and more skin. I can still remember the uproar of broadcasters of a female group showing off their belly's (cant remember who) and now it seems the norm...

Cameramen are the last step of the process.
