The "Sunfull" Movement Campaign Office and the Ministry of Public Administration and Security have joined hands to kick off a nationwide campaign designed to clean up online message boards by removing anonymous derogatory comments and increasing the practice of posting positive messages online.

Sunfull is a Korean word meaning positive comments and anti-cyber bullying.

The two will hold a launching ceremony for the Sunfull Movement at the KBS 88 Stadium in western Seoul at 11 a.m. Saturday. Minister of Public Administration and Security Mang Hyung-kyu and Min Byoung-chul, founder of the Sunfull Movement, will attend the ceremony along with some 3,000 middle and high school students from all over the country.

The ceremony will feature a range of events to highlight their fight against cyber bullying. They also plan to kick off the campaign in five major provinces nationwide from June through September by organizing similar events.

Min started the movement following the suicide of singer Unee in 2007, following malicious comments and groundless rumors about her in cyberspace. Min, who runs one of the nation's largest English language institutes, has encouraged his students to post positive comments on celebrities' websites and blogs.

A number of elementary and secondary school students across the nation have joined the movement, promoting a friendlier Internet environment with positive comments and replies to online news stories. Additionally, some 200 lawmakers have pledged to support the campaign.
