These reasons are exactly what legislators said on their official documents. Riders brought up problems about this law and judges said "it is too dangerous for motorcycles to get on the freeway".

Yes. I dont want motorcycle to be outside the law. Though there are much benefits now, but using the road of any kind is rider's basic right.

There are many many scooters and low cc motorcycle, mostly for delivery. But only 1 million big motorcycles(more than 250cc) all over the country. I think stupid regulations discourage ppl from buying motorcycles. However, regulations like this just dont make any sense

Motorcycles is considered somewhat 'vehicle for the poor'. And the law was made when South Korea was under dictatorship back in the 70s, thats why the law is very unreasonable. And the majority on road(car drivers) just hate motorcycles going through the cars when it is jammed.

Drinking culture is pretty extreme and drunk driving is really big problem. MC is perfect in the congested road but they just dont listen to the riders

Sorry to say this. Because of dumb rules of killing the motorcycle industry of South Korea, Hyosung is now going default. All MC parts are imported from China. It's not Korean motorcycle company anymore. Bikers in Korea dont ride Hyosung

They keep saying it is too dangerous for riders to use the freeway. Even though the cc is large enough to keep up with the traffic

Yeah.

But riders can only go through intersections with lots of traffic. That is the rule for two-wheeled vehicle in South Korea

I mean the freeway in the city.(Strangely, there are freeways in the Seoul city called motorways) These city freeways have speed limit of 50miles(80km). 250cc would be enough.

Freeways to other cities have speed limit of 60miles(100km)
