When a Japanese sports media reported on Korea’s ‘Rising Sun Flag’ movement, they showed a negative attitude, saying, “There are no rules for cheering for the Rising Sun Flag in the World Baseball Classic (WBC), so there is no problem.”

On the 8th, Japan’s ‘Higashispoweb’ published an article titled ‘Korean Professor Launches a Campaign to Exclude the Rising Sun Flag’ “Immediate Accusation” Contest has no rules’, stating that Sungshin Women’s University Professor Seo Kyung-deok is conducting a ‘Rising Sun Flag Banning Campaign’. “Cheering for the Rising Sun Flag is not prohibited by the tournament, so there is no problem at all. As it is a one-sided claim by the Korean side, controversy is expected ahead of the Korea-Japan match on the 10th.”

Regarding this, Professor Seo said, “Even Japan’s major sports media insisting on the legitimacy of cheering for the rising sun flag is an act of denying the history of Japan’s war of aggression in the past.” Just as I was stopped for cheering for the Rising Sun Flag, I plan to make them suffer worldwide disgrace again.”

Previously, Professor Seo announced on the 8th, “We are holding a campaign to prevent Japan from cheering for the Rising Sun Flag in celebration of the opening of the World Baseball Classic (WBC).” In 2016, a picture of cheering for the rising sun flag was posted on the WBC website, causing controversy, and in 2019, cheering for the rising sun flag appeared in the Korea-Japan match of the national baseball competition ‘Premier 12’, causing a big wave.

Professor Seo said, “If the Japanese cheering squad cheers again with the Rising Sun Flag, we will immediately report it to the WBC and inform the world of the problem through foreign reporters.” We plan to use it as a good opportunity to widely publicize to the world that it is a war criminal flag, which means the same as Kreuz.”

“As a result of constantly pointing out the problem of cheering for the rising sun flag to FIFA with many netizens, we were able to stop the Japanese cheering team from cheering for the rising sun flag during the last World Cup in Qatar,” he said. ”he emphasized.
