wow. i think that might be the worst thing i've read so far on this board (but hey, i'm still new.. Rolling Eyes

you think they should be ruled by the japanese? do you know how insensitive and ugly a thing that is to say? i don't usually go off on people on the internet but damn that's just a bit much don't you think?

would you like your sister/daughter/wife/mother shipped off and put into sexual slavery for an army?

your entire people being oppressed by a foreign force bend on war and your entire culture being systematically erased?

no one deserves such a thing.

A stampede of clones waving V signals in the air? hahaha... Laughing Laughing Laughing

I used to help my uncle keep sheep. You could get them all to swarm through the gate if you could tempt the leader one through with some food. A bit like Koreans.

Sorry to hear about it Gollum, it sounds like its a nasty side effect of your typical korean lack of planning and foresight :S

Interestingly enough I left this page open and went to talk to my co teacher in another office. When I got back some second years were acting well excited. I thought they had suddenly improved in english and understood the story but alas, they were just admiring gollum's avatar. Very Happy

Update:

One girl is still hospitalized. Rumor is that the producer of the "School Attack" has visited her in the hospital every day, bringing her autographs of her favorite stars, etc. Apparently, she had blood vessels in her face and eyes burst, and she has bruised ribs. What would have to happen for you to burst blood vessels like that? Getting trampled?

One of the student's uncles happens to be president of M-Net (MTV), the group that puts this event on. Apparently, some disciplinary action was taken out on whomever planned the event that day. They got some bad publicity, although I think it was somewhat controlled, because it was mentioned on YTN and in a newspaper.

I have a feeling that if another "School Attack" happens in the future, it will be handled differently.

This sounds so stupid.... and why would schools encourage students to get all crazy about pop stars in the first place?

I should think that your student would have been stamped on several times for her blood vessels to burst. Else her vessels are really thin to begin with..

Well.. I hope they scrap the whole idea altogether.
