I'm amused by some of the recent instances of 'netizen' hyper-sensitivity to comments on things Korean, for example the white girl from Japan who 'insulted kimchi' and the preteen American kid who expressed dismay over the quality of 'D-Wars' on Youtube. I (sort of) can't believe that these turned into widely-distributed news articles.

We've all come to see plenty of silly situations like this over time, and I suspect there'll be plenty more, so my question is this...

If you were to make headlines in the Korean media over some trivial, laughable matter, what would you want it to be about and why? ...Or, what would the headline read?

...Still thinking of my favorite...would probably have something to do with being out drinking with Koreans my age and their families get pissed that they're out too late..."Immoral Nuisance Alcoholic Foreigner Lures Unsuspecting Locals Into Reputable Nightclub to Exploit Them blah blah blah".
