| Eh, I know plenty of people who've flown with joints in their possession. I certainly wouldn't assume they're full of crap. |

really?
I've always been petrified of the idea of carrying weed into an airport.
plus, smoking rooms are open to everyone. Good chance that someone walks in and smells it right? |

Maybe, but Koreans generally have no idea what it smells like. |

Only now the xenophobic tunnel visioned netizens are watching this? I remember watching this over a year ago on Youtube. I believe they flew and walked right in with it hidden in their groin area. Americans do it on domestic flights all the time and that's why many are against full body scan and pat downs involving the private area. Anyone to get on an international flight with weed is crazy and naive. I seen death sentence warnings in bold red letters while waiting a stopover in the Taipei airport last August and read online about the draconian drug laws in other countries. While Korea probably wouldn't execute or keep you, Malaysia and Singapore will cane, torture, and put you down for it. Thailand looked to have lots of drug culture, but the Thai police are scary enough and they got a monkey house known as the other Bangkok Hilton. They don't mind if you smoke, but they want your money and time in return. Fat chance Korea will extradite the rappers for a video of weed smoking in the airport. I'd be darned if netizens bribing for it pulled that trick off.
What the netizens don't seem to get is the old ladies got the Korean marijuana culture going on. It's medical marijuana smoked in old places with a red swastika and bamboo flag pole, but it's still illegal though old people are excused from breaking laws and acting rude. |

I dated a Taiwanese girl in college who took an cigarette case full of joints into Taiwan. I was not very happy with her. |

He can't be extradited unless charged in another country for what he did in Korea. I was talking along the lines if Koreans could bribe American authorities to charge and hand him over, but keep it out of the news since this wouldn't be legal. It's a bit far fetched for what is a misdemeanor crime back home. He could get in trouble for weed some place else, but that has nothing to do with having it in Korea 18 months ago. |

Yep, I smelled it many times near 2 of them places nearby and the convo came up when an English speaking Korean friend played a 90's song on his car stereo about dealing weed. I asked if he knew what the song was about and the brainiac told me so we talked about marijuana smoking. The professional salary man traveled, studied, worked with US military at Osan, is easy going, loves everything American, and knows far more than a typical Korean. I asked about smelling it near these places I walk by every day. It's not only mugwort, but it might have other herbs mixed in. He straight up told me all about the old ladies smoking it for pain, but that if we, younger people, were caught or told on with a positive urinalysis, we'd have to go to a center for normalcy. |

And there's still no TSA fondling going on if you fly to Korea from another country other than the U.S.A. |
