Yep, I shit you not. It kicked off with his girlfriend at 5.00a.m and went on till 9.00a.m. He was trying to jump from the 11th floor, got the girlfriend over to call the old bill, but she wasn't having it!!! All the neighbors heard what was going on but did nothing. No surprise to be honest, but nonetheless 3 hours of drama I could have done with out. I wonder what awaits me tomorrow morning or indeed this evening. Fair to say that Koreans are an emotional bunch, especially when it comes to love. Oh, and security just so happend to be a miss, boy those guys earn their coin!!! Good day, and beat that if you can. Laughing Laughing

So what did you do? Call the police or respect Korean culture? I'm sure security had more important things to do like making sure no-one mixes up the recycling.

I wonder why some Koreans don't feel obliged to help in a situation. Is it Korean behaviour to ignore someone in trouble and turn a blind eye to it.

It sounds like she didn't want the police to come and spoil the entertainment.

How would she have felt though if he had jumped?
