A South Korean man, the first to be convicted of spousal rape in the country, was found dead Tuesday in an apparent suicide, police officials said.
The 43-year-old man, identified by his surname Lim, was found by his mother hanged at his home in southern Busan around 2:40 p.m., according to the police. |

I'm assuming if it's the first ever convicted, and it happened today, yes probably. |

I was out at resteraunts and in public plaes all day and there were many witnesses.
I'm sure the judge will say that it is the wife's fault again, he killed himself because she didn't understand Korean culture. |

No. Somehow this will be America's fault. And beef will be banned again. |

loss of face... geez ... there's something really self-centered in taking shame so personally
what a cultural thing!
instead Mr. Korean: get over yourself, admit you were wrong, APOLOGIZE to those you've wronged, and move on with things
the size of the Korean ego is only surpassed by its fragility |

only for 2 more weeks.. I don't think she was here long enough to get an F5... her sponsor is dead.. immigration has probably already told her to pack her bags. |
