This is to inform you that South Korea's Constitutional Court on Thursday struck down a
60-year-old statute outlawing adultery under which violators faced up to two
years in imprisonment. The nine-member bench ruled by seven to two that the 1953
law was unconstitutional.
"Even if adultery should be condemned as immoral, state
power should not intervene in individuals' private lives," said presiding
justice Park Han-Chul.
