This seems to be absent from the English papers:

| An executive at Posco Energy has come under fierce public criticism over the weekend for reportedly smacking a flight attendant on the head with a magazine because he was unhappy with the in-flight ramen. |
Scroll down that link above for English. |

Don't you hate when that happens?
So he flew to LAX, refused to be questioned by the FBI for his actions, so flew straight back to Korea on the next flight. He's an idiot through and through. |

| It was in the KT this morning but they never mentioned him being POSCO. Joongang Daily had more information than KT did including naming what company he worked for and the Korean Herald was worse than the KT saying "Various blog sites said that the executive works for an energy-related business unit of a big business group" Korean netizens have outed the idiot.. not doing up his seat belt and hitting a stewardess over ramen? what a douche. |

상무 is pretty high up - section chief, director, etc. Apparently he was in charge of new energy development.
More netizen parodies of this guy:

The first image says he's now in charge of Posco's ramen division. |

What a douche. I've traveled by Korean Air a couple of times and the girls are always lovely. I was in first class with Emirates a couple of years ago and they had run out of steak. I took the fish instead. It's not a big deal.
I teach some uni students studying to be air hostesses and I hate to think of the terrible behaviour they'll have to put up with. |

Sometimes you just gotta smack a B*tch if your ramen is not up to par.
ajoshi style. |

I'm guessing you're absolutely correct on that. Otherwise, I can't fathom why the airline would allow someone who assaulted one of their flight attendants onto another of their flights. I'd've been more impressed if KAL, when the dude requested a flight back to Korea, had told him, "It's in that direction. Enjoy your swim."
By the way, isn't that ramen used for the parody Sin Ramyeon? I wonder how they feel about their product being connected in that way to the incident.
And, if anyone's wondering, my on-the-fly rough translation of the parody is:

POSCO Ramyeon
Spicy Cheap Flavor
Highly recommended, in-flight meals Emperor |
