A South Korean presidential candidate is enjoying the support of many bald voters. Here's why:
Lee Jae-myung says he will come with the perfect policy on hair-loss treatment if he is elected in March election.
Online communities for bald people are flooded with messages supporting his proposal. There is also strong criticism that it's just a populism-driven campaign pledge by Lee, the governing party candidate, to win votes. Lee told reporters on Wednesday that he thinks hair regrowth treatments should be covered by the national health insurance programme.
“ may appear to be a necessary step for many people worrying about their hair loss but it’s nothing but serious populism, given that it would worsen the financial stability of the state insurance program,” the conservative Munhwa Ilbo newspaper said in an editorial Thursday.
