Who ARE these people that wake up at 3, and start rattling around in the alleys and sidestreets by 4??? I'm guessing the clatter of highheels on our stairwell is nothing other than hookers leaving their clientele's apartment, but the yogurt lady's cart sounds like a damn Sherman tank at the wee hours of the morning. Why does it sound like someone is unloading a delivery of lumber under my window just before sunup?
Do I have any recourse in the matter? I know Korean police are about as useless as red lights at a intersection, and there is no sense of common courtesy or consideration to appeal to. Do I fill balloons with urine and pelt the offending party? Throw eggs at them? Go buy a baseball bat and bring it with me when I storm outside to remind them what time it is? Take pictures of the girls leaving my building at 4 am and post them on the internet?
Anyone wanna brainstorm? |

Very little.
However, the Korean mafia charges a reasonable price for breaking a leg. Arms are cheaper. A general roughing up is the cheapest of all. |

last time i told anyone to be quiet in my alley, even with the proper politeness suffixes affixed, he started throwing beer bottles at my (thankfully plexiglass) window.
i leaned out the window to tell him to *beep* the hell off before i hit him with a brick (too bad this is beyond my hanguk-mal) and of course, he asked
"whae-ada-you puh-rum?" (where are you from?)
he wasn't too stoked that i said i was an ilbon-saram from takeshima. beer bottle throwing ensued for another 15 minutes, but he eventually got bored of it.
i saw him in the street about a week later and he had no recollection of me or the incident. |

komtengi,
You know it is warm or hot. Many people use fans when it is warm or hot. Are you trying to promote fan death? |

Ha Ha... Korean police are in fact as useless as red lights at an intersection... That's funny and a great way to put it... ...
Take the matter into your own hands... Urine balloons are a great idea... Or, tossing any random and useless objects would do...
Us teachas needs to gets us some rest... |

Ha ha! Brilliant! Maybe if it happens again you can throw him down a box of matches or a pair of scissors. |

yeah. you'd think he'd think "white skin? japanese? nah... the guy's lying".
instead he was cussing me out even louder, with what sounded like "you dirty sonofabitch japanese guy! get out of my country! korea is for koreans!!!"
but it could have been something else. i just heard a lot of "ship-pal, ilbon saram" in there. it was fun. |
