 Posted: Wed Dec 09, 2009 1:19 am Post subject: The Itaewon Murders - now a movie |
 |
|
Based on an unsolved murder case at a Burger King hamburger fast-food chain in Seoul�s multicultural Itaewon district in 1997, �The Case of Itaewon Homicide� opens with a graphically brutal scene in which an innocent college student is stabbed to death by a stranger.
Two Korean-American teenagers, Pearson (Jang Geun-seok) and Alex (Sin Seung-hwan), are the prime suspects in custody, and each blames the other for the horrific crime. The suspects throw contradictory evidence at investigators, creating confusion about what actually happened, leaving prosecutor Park (Jeong Jin-yeong) to try to figure out the truth.

The murder of American student Jamie Lynn Penich in 2001 in Itaewon would've made for a FAR more interesting movie. I still believe the roommate did it.
There was a fantastic online site that dealt with the murder from Court
TV but can't seem to find it. |

| The Itaewon murder is yet another reason why I stay away from gyopos, especially the SoCal variety, like HIV. |

There was another incident that would have made a much more interesting murder film. It happened in an unknown Yogwan on the Nigerian section of Hooker hill. Basically across from all the outdoor makali stalls.
A dead white female of Welsh( British) heritage was discovered in a bathroom floor in a cheap motel. It appeared she had been stomped to death. The killer was never discoved until later a guilt striken American women decided to give herself in.
What actually happened. The ladies were out for a late night booze up in Iteawon. I assume they were both feeling a bit bi-curious and one thing led to another and they ended up making out in the shower. One of them became disgusted by her behavous and just went crazy and stomped the other one to death. |

Ask the gyopo how many white friends they had growing up. If its over 50%, no problems. Under 50%, then stay away. |

When did this occur? This sounds exactly like the Penich case. |

Who would've thought a movie would be over dramatized?

Dang. That's a crazy story but not sure if it would make a full-length feature though. Maybe a short film. |

Funny 'cause it's true. American gyopos with no white friends = bad news. |

As a gyopo myself, I generally avoid white Americans and white English in their 20s like the plague. Australians are also on the blacklist.
Due to their upbringing, they usually display passive-aggressive behavior towards Asians while ultimately adopting a condescending attitude toward non-whites despite outwardly PC mannerisms.
But continental Europeans are generally very cool to hang out with. In fact, my girlfriend is from Scandinavia. |
