Also, I guess her Korean ain't too hot:

I noticed this too. Annoying. |

The writer of the article is a prime candidate for one day becoming a runner herself.
She whines about "the long hours, unapproachable boss, fighting for exact dates of a too-short vacation."
The day some real runworthy abuses kick in she'll become a foghorn and go running for the hills.
She tacks on at the beginning of the article all the bad elements in a few short throwaway lines. These "reasonable man" tactics are to gain credibility so that the reader may become ripe for the slaughter when she delivers her main thrust.
To my mind, anyone who can't see through this article is criminally dimwitted and as atonement should tear up his degree. |
"ripe for the slaughter?" Relax! This intention of this article was to show that there are some people who have had an enjoyable, fulfilling experience in Korea. You make it sound like a James Bond villain-esque plot! Calm down and less of the conspiracy theories. |
