| I'm going to Korea in two days and I'm at a party and they are smoking Death. Will I get tested postive even though I am not smoking myself? |

It's possible. Or that's what Ross Rebagliati said when he was stripped of his Gold Medal. |

Uh, that knee-jerk Japanese decision was overturned in less than 24 hours and Ross kept his gold as official Olympic champion when the IOC realized that marijuana was not an explicitly banned substance under IOC competition rules and the argument for it as a performance-enhancing drug was lacking. So whether he inhaled or puffed became beside the point (so no surprise Rebagliati soon admitted to smoking).

You or your luggage will get a postive hit from the drug dogs at the airport if you don't wash what you wore at the party.
They will then take apart your luggage and strip search you. Maybe even anal cavity search.
I know this to be true. Vancouver Airport. September, 1997.

I know that, but doesn't change what he said when he tested positive. |

| Do you actually have to stay in that particular room as the smoke is going around? How about going out on the verandah for a few minutes and coming back in? |

I woke up late for my flight after a party the night before where a lot of BC bud was smoked. So, I just threw on the clothes I wore the night before, splashed some water over my face, grabbed my suitcase and jumped in the car.
At Vancouver airport the dog started jumping all over me at the line up for check-in. They took me into a small room. Asked if I had any marijuana, I said I didn't (true), so they searched everything in my luggage, then asked me to take off my clothes, bend over, and spread my butt-cheeks. I complied. He didn't penetrate. Just a look. He didn't look long because, as I said, I hadn't showered that morning!!! 
They were nice guys about it. Can't complain. I think they got a worse deal than me!! Imagine looking up men's butts for a living!!??
They let me go with 5 mins left at the boarding gate. |

I've never seen drug dogs in my life in Ireland, Germany or Korea but thanks for the heads up about washing my clothes. I might even perfume my anus to make things go more smoothly. 
In Canada they would probably let you go if they only detected drugs off your clothes but none on your possession, but in Korea I reckon they'd deport you either way; no questions, explanations, inquiry. |

Depends on how thick the smoke is and how long you were breating the smoke.
Lots of factors involved man. Did you walk by and just catch a whiff of smoke? Were you in a hotboxed tent? You didn't smoke, but you blew shotguns to the hotgirl sitting next to you? |

The smoke wasn't thick, I stayed out of the room for most of it so I reckon I'm safe. I'm not worried about it at the moment...it's the bodies in the bag that are letting off a stink that I'm more concerned about.

Ding ding ding, that's the answer according to Korean E-2 requirements. Some hospitals will test for it, though, so don't go to Mr. Kim's mom and pop clinic. Severance Hospital and others communicate well and understand the requirements: No herb tests. |
