Like most extreme viewpoints, it's held by a small, yet vocal group. It's not remotely near the norm.
It should be noted that South Korea -does- have a lot of problems regarding sexism, crazy beauty standards, and so on. In the next couple of years I expect we'll see a lot of news come out of the kpop industry. Probably after yet more stars commit suicide and the issue gets too big to ignore. So it's not that hard to see why these kind of feminist groups pop up.
From my personal experience, I'd say the way older people in Korea view marriage / sex issues is something close to the US in the ~80s, mixed with the new generation that is tired and fed up. Then toss in a small but not insubstantial amount of Fundamentalist Christians who are extremely conservative (anti-LGBT as well).
Korea is going to change -a lot- in the next 10 years.
