A foreigner's actions on Jeju Island, South Korea, sparked outrage. He hugged and kissed a "Haenyeo" (diving women) statue. The video went viral.
The footage was taken near Hamdok Beach. The man climbed the statue while his friends laughed. A local resident filmed and uploaded it.
The filmer later apologized: "It wasn't meant to offend." The statue is on the UNESCO intangible cultural heritage list.
