The government will provide students with bodyguards and enhance counseling programs to tackle increasing school violence, the government announced yesterday.

Students who feel threatened can contact their district education office to request bodyguard protection on their way to and from school, officials said.


Wow. This will be interesting.

Oh man. I know they mean well be doing this.

But the first kid that shows up to school with a bodyguard is going to be ridiculed for the rest of his life.

Maybe in Canada. Here in Korea kids will be whining to their parents "Na do! "Na do!"

When I read that article in the rag yesterfday, I had the suspicion that some rich brat's mother started all this.

Either that or gangsters are in the school boards again.
Ever seen the movie Doo Sa Bul Il Jae?? (non korean keyboard here)

If any of you guys fail to respond to a kid screaming "HELLO" at you at the top of his lungs his bodyguard will kick the snot out of you. Rough times ahead as I usually ignore the little shits.

Damn, if I had a bodyguard when I was in school, I would've gotten him to kneecap so many people.
