Feudal superstition is not a legal concept, but a special term that has been established after the liberation of our country. It specifically refers to people's thoughts and behaviors that believe in astrology, divination, witch doctors, Feng Shui, fortune telling, and ghosts and gods.

In our country, superstitious activities are not protected by national laws. However, those who use feudal superstition to disrupt social order and harm the health of others will be punished according to the circumstances.
