School lunches in Korea are quite healthy and the students (at least at my school) are made to eat everything on their tray.

My low level students spend massive amounts of time gaming. It's not healthy. (And as a minor, they don't have the right to waste their time playing violent games.) The Korean government is right. I support them in this.
