Maybe the guys in the helicopters took her.

Who's missing her? Her family? Her roommates? Her co-workers? Her name's Laura, what else do you know about her? Lived where? Worked where? Last name? Passing on info from a friend, who is the friend and why do they think she is in trouble? She hasn't reported for work? Does she work here or is she a tourist? Where did she live? Who would know? Maybe they're in a yogwan somewhere. Has anyone been to her house? Are her personal possessions still around? Wallet? ID? Passport? Did she have a visa, Korean bank account? Got a photo? C'mon.

Hello everyone,


A friend of mine has recently gone missing. Her name is Laura, she's
from Preston in England, is medium height with long blond hair and is
25 years old. She is teaching English out here at a hagwon in Bucheon
but has only been in Korea for a few months. Just incase it helps to
jog anyone's memory, she went to the Mud Festival this year with her
boyfriend Stewart a tall fair haired guy from Harrogate in England.
She was at Katrina's roof top party before we went to see Afrikaa
Bambatta for those of you that were there.


She was with her boyfriend but didn't go home with him on Friday night
- he left her with the friends she was was supposed to be staying with
at 1.30am in Bar Nana's. She was last seen there at 5.30am with an
unknown guy - his picture is attached, if anybody recognises him then
please contact me on 010 4643 1030 or her boyfriend Stewart on 011 691
4649, as soon as possible as he is the only person who might be able
to help.


I've also attached a picture of her which some of you may have already
seen by now.... please pass this email on to anyone who you think
might know the guy in the picture or of Laura's whereabouts...


Thanks, Baya.





Hi,


Most of you ive never met but i need your help. My girlfriend has gone
missing in seoul. her name is laura breen she is 25 and british medium
height and build with long blonde hair and she was wearing a white
green vest. We went out to bar nana in itaewon on friday night. I went
home at one thirty and she stayed out with a group of friends, she was
supposed to stay with in itaewon. She stayed out drinking and has not
been seen since, this is very unlike her, me and her friends and
family are very worried about her. we spoke to the staff at nana and
they remember her being there till closing at 5 30 drinking with a
guy. apparantly he was clean cut wearing a white dress shirt with
browny red hair and possibly a bit chubby. If anyone was there or has
any idea who she was with or any info please get in contact with me.
Her photo is attached and hopefully bar nana will be able to send me a
photo soon of the people she was with which i will send on. email me
at [email protected] or call 011 691 4649 or 010 3140 2180. Please
could you also send this email on to anyone in your address book who
is in seoul. thanks very much for your time

Now, before people start calling for media coverage, embassy intervention, or writing to the Tony Blair as usually happens when something like this comes along, perhaps someone who actually knows this girl first hand should step up to the plate and say she's really missing. So far it seems to be about people forwarding emails from third hand sources.

As we all know the freaks and scam artists that ocassionally inhabit this board have led us gulliable souls astray on a number of occasions

How about a last name? Seems odd not to include it seeing as she is missing and all.

ah, sorry I missed that!

The question still stands though, are there are legit posters that know this girl and know for sure that she is actually missing?

Ah, once again the utterly reliable eye-witness paperbag_princess was there and remembers exactly what she saw but... is only passing on information that she got from an (unnamed) friend. I thought we had a discussion about passing on urban legends already, princess. Don't you realize that when you fudge your message to BS us into thinking you're closer to the story than you really are, you're only hurting the believability of the story? If this is a real story (and not five years old or something) let's see a post from a legitimate poster who knows the real person, not a friend of a friend of a friend of somebody you met in a pot-legalization chatroom.

If it's true I hope she's okay. I think I might wait and see which way this one blows though...
