Heo Ji-woong continued to remark his beliefs related to the’Jeong In-i case’.
Heo Ji-woong said on Instagram on the 11th, “There is a lot of discussion going on with Jung In-yi’s abuse and death recently, and as the weight of the story shifts from the abuse problem to the adoption problem, prejudice and misunderstandings toward adoptive families are spreading.” Pointed out.
“If all the child abuse incidents that have stunned people’s eyes and hearts over the past year have all happened in adoptive families, that would be the case. But the reality was not. It was usually the birth parents who tortured the children. “We must not forget that prejudice was the reason why the so many opportunities that Jeong-in was able to stop the case in the first place were destroyed.”
Also, “The prejudice that people who do a lot of good things cannot. And the prejudice against the prejudice that it will be prejudice towards adoptive families. It would not be possible to live without prejudice at all, but at least I should know that the attitude of evaluating and deciding others as bad or good at my convenience can be the seeds of unimaginable tragedy.”
In the case of Jeong In-i, a 16-month-old adopted child, Jeong In-i, died of cardiac arrest on October 13 last year, with a pancreas amputated after cruel abuse by her adoptive parents.
On the 8th, the National Adoption Family Alliance issued a statement on the 8th, saying, “The part that needs to be improved and addressed in this case is’child abuse’, not the adoption system itself.” “The biggest victims are children waiting for a new family right now. There are cases in which parents who have decided to give up are continuing. Children from existing adoptees are also being shrunk by the negative prejudice around them.”
