Not in Korea, in Taiwan. An old friend sent me this link today.

http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/front/archives/2007/09/19/2003379411

I first met this woman in 2002, she helped me find a lot of extra work, and at the beginning of 2003, found me a great job (which I left after 2 months, wanted to go home at that stage).

After my first failed stint in Korea, I went back in 2004, where she loaned me cash so I could rent a scooter and buy food and stuff.

While she was a bit aloof and forgetful at times, I am still pretty shocked that someone would tie her up, strangle her and stab her in the chest. She had two sons I think.

Right, off to Itaewon to eat sauerkraut.

Thank you mods, for moving this thread.

Actually, it is always grim when I hear about someone that I know (knew) dying, always made worst if they were killed or any other such unnatural death. I just spent the last 20 minutes thinking about all the friends I have had that are dead, and some of the stuff I have seen involving death. Ruined my day pretty much.

Will be better tomorrow no doubt, I have to be! I have to teach little Kim MinSu and that pain in my butthole Lee GunWoo tomorrow, gotta be on my toes for those little fellas!

That's an awful thing to hear. Sorry about that. Murdered in a such a terrible way, over money? Good god.
