Coked up teacher!

Surfing around the Korean portal sites looking for sordid tales involving foreign English teachers, I came across a piece from Dec. 28 (hey, better late then never) in the Herald Gyeongje reporting that some dumb 32-year-old American teacher was arrested on charges of habitually doing cocaine here in Korea.

Yongsan police busted the guy after being tipped off that foreign English teachers were sniffing the white powder at clubs in Itaewon.

A police official said, ��It wouldn��t be an exaggeration to say that more than 90 percent of American drug offenders are English teachers who entered Korea on work visas�� Since even most small provincial language schools employ foreign teachers, the trend is that drug crimes by foreigners are spreading nationwide.��

At this point, I direct English teachers to GI Korea��s helpful tips on how to disguise yourself as a U.S. soldier when you��re out on the town.

Interestingly, the Herald Gyeongje found it fit to not only use the accused full name (first, middle and last) and print his area of residence, but they even named the school at which he worked.

some guys in hongdae gave a friend of mine some white powder once- they rubbed it on his gums and he reckons it had effects suspiciously similar to coke.

So yeah, it does exist here
