A South Korean woman has been detained for killing her baby who was born while she was playing online games, police said Thursday.
They said the 26-year-old gave birth while at an Internet cafe in Seoul on March 25. She allegedly put the infant in a plastic bag, sealed it and dumped it in a nearby parking lot. |

In 2010 a mother killed her three-year-old son while she was tired from Internet game-playing. Also in 2010, a 15-year-old boy committed suicide after killing his mother for scolding him over excessive playing of computer games.
A 41-year-old man was sentenced to two years in prison in the same year after he and his wife left their baby daughter to die at home of malnutrition while they were in Internet cafes. |
Wow. Someone has to be really focused on the game if they can pretty much play through the pain of childbirth. |

I'll say. A bit unusual, for Korea. Hope it wasn't mine.  |

It wouldn't have made a news if the cleaning lady didn't see the baby's body in the trash. ( I watched the Korean news, it was a cleaning lady who saw the body when she opened the trash can )
I wonder how many infants are trashed this way every year in Korea as well as in other countries.

I also wonder if the police would look for the father or not, or he is innocent? |

She actually got off her ass to have sex. I guess that's an accomplishment. |

At this point, I think it's only safe to assume half of that statement is correct. |

You guys won't make fun out of such a tragedy if you read more about this girl
Her father died when she was still a young girl, and ever since she'd been living with her mom who soon became mentally illed after her husband's death.
She dropped out of high school and became addicted to video games.
She met the baby's father on internet and cohabitated with him for a while, before he broke up with her and left her alone preganant.
The police says the girl is also mentally illed. |

I remember the story about the couple who let their real baby starve while they cared for an online game baby... so ridiculous.
I feel sorry for her and the baby... She was mentally ill with no one to take care of her or make sure she and her baby were okay... I wonder if she even realized what she was doing when she killed her child... |
