| Real life looks boring on video, trying filming one of your own parties some times and see how rockin' you are. |
I tried it a few times when I first got my camcorder, and that's right. We were having a far better time than it looked on playback. Except the one of my b-day bash in 2003. The video DID rock because we WERE rockin'. Hot Chix� + Charisma Men� + 2 Super-Surprise Mystery Guests� + Stupid Pet Tricks� + Stupid Hilarious Drunk Human Tricks� -- all caught on film, and some of it too hot for YouBoobTube. The video in the OP, certainly not a great moment in cinema, but I thought it was okay. Looks like they had themselves a good time. I couldn't make out much of the conversation, though.

| I'll give them one thing, they partied, and there were more people at those house parties than I've ever seen at house parties in Korea. |
There were a lot of people at that club in the video, but the crowd at the house wasn't all that huge. I think it's a case of space, lack thereof. The clip reminded me of parties I had when I lived in a small place with flatmates. Everyone crammed into the living room & kitchen, nowhere to sit but the ground. Makes a small crowd look big.
And that's perfectly fine for college dorm parties, your first few years abroad, or in a Korean's home where sitting on the ground is validated by tradition & culture. But if you're white, you're in your 30s, and your parties still look like floppy sloppy miniature Woodstock love-ins, cross-legged hippy-chicks & stumble-down drunks all tripping over people's legs, spilling drinks & food everywhere, and you still don't have seats & place-settings for more than 4 people, then you might want to look for a larger place.
Remember, Hot Chix� dig a big party pad -- I think some secretly imagine it could be their own personal catwalk if they play their cards right -- so this should be every Charisma Man's� top priority when looking for a place to live. Not affordability, not location or proximity to subway stations, but basic chick appeal. |

I saw this one a few weeks ago and was really sickened.
My wife says she remembers the news story. This complete arsehole bully beat up the bus driver because he said the bus driver braked heavily and disturbed him or made him stumble or something. When asked if that was a good reason he said in innocence that he had had a very stressful day and that anyway, he was only a bus driver. |
I hope the police beat him to within an inch of his life. A complete *beep* animal. Where the hell were the onlookers intervening? |
Most of the bus drivers I've seen would've stopped and taken the whole affair into the nearest intersection. I've never seen such a passive Korean bus driver. |

The bus driver was quite old. Another black mark in the attackers book as he did a huge dis-respect to those older than him.
The point of the news story, accorcing to my Korean wife, is that those bad apples with wealth and power in Korea feel that everyone under them is unimportant.
My guess is that the guy might have been a gangster or some other low-life who came into money. |
