I wonder if the bee guy had ulterior motives. I mean, where would one get that many bees and have that much knowledge about them unless one was a beekeeper?

He was probably hoping to get famous and push his "Kim's Honey" on the market. If that's the case, I applaud that sort of nakedly shameless exxploitation of advertising.

Ajeosshi? Why not say a middle-aged man? Why do you feel compelled to point out it's a middle-aged man? Do you have anything against middle-aged men?

Certainly not the first time something like this has hppened :

"Two South Korean demonstrators cut off their fingers outside the Japanese Embassy in�Seoul�(search) on Monday to protest Tokyo's territorial claim to a set of islets controlled by South Korea."

Did they fake it though?

Because this guy appears to dip his knife into a pouch of tomato sauce.

Even more ridiculous is the wide-eyed nod of approval from his mate in the headband. lol.
