Surely Kim Jong Il and his hoods qualify...extorting money from other countries, treating his people like cr*p and occasionally firing missiles to intimidate everyone.

The gangsters in Korea are into prostitution, night-uhs (Korean nightclubs), loan sharking, and gambling. Pretty much the same stuff that gangsters in Japan and China are into.

One time in Suwon I saw a bunch down on the Rodeo st. when I was with some Korean bros. It was about 15 guys all in black armani suits in the middle of the street bowing to one other dude. Then they took off into the night-uh across the street.

I don't know any names. I do know that in Anyang there are some very popular clubs controlled by gangsters that don't allow foreigners. My Korean friends said they're the "Anyang Tigers." They like to dish out beatings 20-1 style.

A lot of the older guys, looking to get out of the gang life are into car exporting, mostly to places in Africa, Russia and China. A friend of mine was also in that business, and I met a few people I wouldn't want to be on the wrong side of when I'd pop into his office.

Here's an example of a Korean gangster:

I've been told my boxing coach is a gangster. He looks the part. Stocky, with cauliflower ears and the gakgdugi haircut. He owns a dabang too and was a middleweight champ of Korea in the 70's. I wouldn't cross him.

Another foreigner who trained at his gym had a problem with an adjoshi outside the gym. Something about a parking place. I wasn't there but was told that our coach settled the problem very quickly.
