Starting March 21, 2013 if you are "overexposed" you can be fined 50,000 won (about $50 USD).
Some K-pop women who are known for their revealing fashion criticized the new rule. Lee Hyori posted this on Twitter: "Is it true about the overexposure fine? I'm dead." Kwak Hyun-hwa said "What am I going to do?"
The new President, Park Geun-hye, proposed the fine in her first cabinet meeting in March.
