Option 1

 * Article title
 * Gender inequality in South Korea


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article is well organized and depicts South Korea's gender inequality in various categories. However, it includes some information with weak proof. For example, the article cites that a Korean star commented that “if a woman weighs over 50kg, she must be nuts" without any evidence or reference. Also, the references used to describe current circumstances in Korea are mostly outdated and seems like it needs to be updated to recent statistics and publications.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Idaenam


 * Article Evaluation
 * First of all, the article does not include much information. It ambiguously explains sociological phenomenon of men in their 20s(so called 'Idaenam') becoming highly conservative and negative to feminism. Social backlash currently happening in both online and offline should be mentioned more precisely. However, the article has a strength that it suggest many references in 'See also' which readers can refer to while reading the article.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Abortion in South Korea


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article explains the history of abortion in South Korea and how it was decriminalized in 2019. It still lacks other important information such as how abortion has been criminalized and punished, or illegal abortion done due to Korean culture preferring boys over girls. It seems that more contents could be added to the article. Moreover, since abortion had long been illegal in South Korea, the 'Abortion Rate' in the article provides somewhat insufficient amount of information.
