Your argument is very logical. But I do not agree with your opinion.

First of all, we have no obligation to follow global trends. Each country has its circumstances, and unlike other OECD countries, Korea has a small population and a very narrow territory, so its characteristics must be considered.

Second, the development of SNS is more likely to have adverse effects. Due to the recent development of the Internet's comment function, various malicious comments are running, and reckless information is pouring out, so we are having a hard time using the Internet. Under these circumstances, holding an election for minors can have a negative effect.

Finally, you argue that the number of students makes up a small percentage of the total population, which is not logical. Even a small number of votes can have a very large effect on an election, and as argued above, children may have a uniform argument and a narrow view due to the development of the Internet, so even a small award is highly likely to have a big impact.

As a result, I disagree with your opinion.
