A gym in Incheon, South Korea posted a sign prohibiting 'Ajummas' (older ladies) and only allowing 'cultured and elegant women' to enter, reigniting discussions on discrimination against older women in South Korea. The gym owner mentioned instances of older women spending long hours in the changing rooms, taking items like towels and hair dryers, and making comments on other members' bodies, leading some younger women to feel uncomfortable and leave. While this is a single gym's policy, it reflects a societal issue of decreasing tolerance towards specific age groups in South Korea, with recent incidents sparking criticism for age-related restrictions in public spaces.

In Zhejiang, China, a man purchased 3 parking spaces in an underground parking lot, where he parked his son's 3 toy cars. Despite property management and security guards insisting on moving the toy cars for other residents' parking needs due to 'insufficient parking spaces', the man refused.
