Better stay away from the Korean clubs kids while we're at it, or we'll all get duped into trying pilopone(sp?), Korea's number one drug of choice.
I'll bet that part about "never did it before but got turned on by others" came from the arrestee himself looking for mitigating circumstances and got put in his handwritten description of the incident, not the Pusan Office of Education.
JWH-018 is not 'skunk' but 'Spice', one of these 'legal highs' that has unfortunately become illegal in quite a few countries now. Korea only made it illegal last year, but it remains legal in most US states.
