I could not wrap my brain around the concept. That was some nasty, nasty stuff... 1,800 won in 1995. I cannot imagine what it was like in 1988.Mark Russellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04471178281396296314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12946845.post-90343711628180404022013-09-27T14:55:44.738+09:002013-09-27T14:55:44.738+09:00They "laid back in their chairs and stretched...They "laid back in their chairs and stretched out their legs, and acted as they pleased"!

Was the interview recorded? Highly doubt it. A few quotes that fit the reporter's preconceived agenda were no doubt quickly scrawled in the reporter's notebook, and then properly "tweaked" prior to publication.<br /><br />Voila, suddenly the minjok are up in arms.
