A public school teacher in Busan was removed from his position after allegedly insinuating paid dates with minors.

According to the Busan Metropolitan City Office of Education on Tuesday, the teacher, in his 50s, told his pupils he had “dated a young foreign girl” in the past, after which more than 10 female students alerted the school authorities that they felt sexually humiliated as “potential dates.”

The teacher defended his case, saying that he had only told the story of his first love, however, the Office of Education stripped him of his position and pressed for police investigation.
