"Good Job, Yeongcha" Elementary School Classroom Filled with '19+ Memes'

Elementary Students Gather Twisting Lower Bodies Saying "Yeongcha"
Rare Actual Deletions Even After Reporting to Korea Communications Commission

Recently, it has become a trend for elementary school students, grouped in pairs of 3 to 4, to place their hands on their hips, twist their lower bodies, and shout "Good! Yeongcha!" Elementary school teachers are struggling with this '19+ meme' behavior.

According to JoongAng Ilbo, a teacher A at an elementary school in Busan said, "During break time, students shout 'Yeongcha' incessantly," adding, "Most children are unaware that this is a 19+ meme, and some who know still do it, so we are strictly guiding them."

The 'Yeongcha' meme originated from a scene in the 2015 movie Inside Men. It features actor Lee Kyung-young, who plays the corrupt politician Jang Pil-woo, making a bomb shot at a drinking party. Recently, comedians parodied this scene on the YouTube channel 'Gyeongyeongjadeul,' which helped the meme gain popularity.

Concerns are rising as this 19+ meme is spreading recklessly among elementary school students. On the 10th, comedian Moon Se-yoon, appearing on the YouTube channel 'Bibo TV,' shared a story about how his daughter used the 'Yeongcha meme,' which embarrassed him.

On video platforms like YouTube, the actual scene from the movie Inside Men is also uploaded. In that scene, Lee Kyung-young is standing naked with women, but the video uploaded in June could be played without any adult verification.

YouTube's community guidelines state that posting obscene content such as excessive exposure and sexual content may result in content removal or channel termination.

Although the Korea Communications Standards Commission can review and request the removal of obscene and prostitution-related information on platforms like YouTube, actual removals are rare. According to the commission, from January to November this year, there were a total of 398 reports of obscene and prostitution-related content on YouTube, but only 23 correction requests were made.
