Recently, in online communities, etc., postings about the culture of’Shibo Rice Cake’ by public officials have been posted one after another. “The woman who finished the time signal turned in cheap rice cakes, but when I saw it later, it was dumped in the trash.”
As the article related to’Shibo Rice Cake’ attracts attention, when you type the word’Shibo’ on the portal site Naver, the word’Shibo Rice Cake’ appears right below. Companies specializing in rice cakes are also searched. Hourly report refers to the status of a public official that a candidate for public official appointment goes through for a certain period of time before official appointment as a public official. It is said that they usually work with an hourly ticket for 6 months to 1 year. At the end of the time signal period, the’time signal rice cake’ is expressed with gratitude around the people. Recently, it is also called’Shibo Chin’ for serving macaroons, coffee, pizza, and walnut snacks.
Last month, an anonymous application (app)’Blind’ asked, “If you’re a public official, do you really turn the rice cake when you take off the time signal?” In the poll with 55 respondents, 42 (76.4%) answered “Does that culture exist?” Seven respondents (12.7%) said they did not, and 6 (10.9%) said they did not. Here, “It’s a waste of money, but I turned it around because the back word came out.” “It is a culture that still exists. It is compared,” commented by public officials.

Among the young public officials in their 20s and 30s, whose time signal has been canceled relatively recently, it is an atmosphere that the time signal chin is a “culture that should be eliminated”. Mr. B, in his 20s, a public official in his 20s, who took off the time signal last year, said, “I hope that the culture of returning to those who have never spoken once will disappear.” I was very embarrassed when the team leader said,’What are you going to do?’ Mr. B is said to have spent over 100,000 won.
C, a 32-year-old civil servant, said the same thing. “It was an unavoidable atmosphere, so I had to do it. Rumors pop up when someone turns it from another department. I thought that I’d rather turn it off and turn it back more comfortably.” Mr. C said, “I was afraid of the situation where I would only lose sight of myself if I just went over it.”
Like this, some young public officials have a voice over sibo rice cakes, but high-ranking public officials, such as the director-level, “I didn’t know if they thought it was an unfair culture.” A 33-year-old official said, “I thought it was a slow disappearing trend,” but said, “I didn’t know if there were any complaints among younger officials.” Lee Mo, a public official for more than 30 years, said, “Some team leaders may ask like a joke, but I didn’t know that they would feel such a word as force or pressure.”
Experts agree that if the culture of’shibo rice cake’ has become a practice in the public office, it should disappear. Lee Seon-woo, a professor at the Department of Public Administration at Korea National Open University, said, “In the sense of gratitude, the meaning of buying one meal seems to have changed or faded. If new public officials feel the burden, it should be eliminated,” he said. “The act of giving rice cakes to seniors and bosses who are related to work has the potential to violate the so-called’Kim Young-ran Act’ or the’Code of Conduct for Public Officials’.”
Regarding this, an official of the Civil Rights Commission said, “For smooth job performance or for social and ceremonial purposes, we must individually judge whether it can hinder fair job performance by comprehensively considering relations and closeness,” and “public officials, etc., abused their superior position. “If you ask for a measure that exceeds the level that can be tolerated according to the social norm, or if the price is recognized, it is a violation of the Kim Young-ran Act.”
