The’Club House’, a real-time voice conversation social network service (SNS), was evaluated as a’minority-friendly’ communication method, as people who were considered as socially underprivileged, such as the disabled or LGBTQ, can share their opinions without restrictions. On the 14th, Hong Yun-hee, chairman of Muui of the Disabled Mobility Contents Cooperative, said, “The visually impaired often use iPhones with a strong voice support function, and visually impaired people regularly make rooms in the clubhouse to communicate and exchange. When I sign up, I ask about my interests, but it was impressive to first ask about issues related to minorities such as’LGBTQ’ and’disability’.” LGBTQ Kim Amugae said, “During the Corona 19 epidemic, minorities were more likely to cut off exchanges with other people than ordinary people, and it was difficult to meet people. It’s nice to be able to meet various people at the clubhouse and talk freely.” . In the clubhouse, there were not only channels to chat with celebrities such as celebrities and politicians, but also many rooms to share and empathize with each other’s difficult experiences, such as disabled, LGBTQ, cancer patients, and job seekers. The advantage of the clubhouse is that users can listen to stories that are difficult to tell openly like neighbors.

However, it is pointed out that in some chat rooms, humor codes to caricature disabilities appear or remarks that disproportionate feminism appear, and it is necessary to think about how to block them. In fact, on the afternoon of the 13th, a user opened a’feminism debate room’, and the founder of the room poured out’misogynistic’ remarks rather than remarks about feminism, causing the users to be embarrassed. Mr. Lee Amugae (25) said, “The clubhouse is a platform that communicates with real-time conversations, and the conversation is not recorded at all, so even if you express hate or insult against minorities, you cannot leave it as a record.” There seems to be a need for supplementary measures because there is no evidence that can be legally responded to such as damage.” By Jae-ho Lee, staff reporter [email protected]
