The film industry welcomes the court's decision. Film Bom CEO Jo Kwang-hee said, "Unlike TV, film audiences play an active role in choosing what to watch. It is inappropriate to censor films when there is so many pornography easily available online."

However, some are already raising concerns about the possible side-effects of the ruling. Ji Myung-hyok, professor at Kookmin University and the head of the Korea Media Rating Board, said, "I am concerned that if films like 'Shortbus' are screened in theaters, it will cause moral chaos."

Thanks to the court's ruling, "Shortbus" can be screened in cinemas. The controversial movie graphically portrays non-simulated sex scenes, such as group sex and masturbation.


Non-simulated? Hey I thought that was taboo even in regular porn!

With the huge afros down there on most Koreans would it even make a difference?

AHAHAHAHHA

Omg!!! I'm soooooooooooo glad they brought up Short Bus. That movie was all about enjoying life and not stifling yourself. Of course it'd lead to "moral chaos". Seriously, *beep* people like Ji Myung-Hyok.
