Not true. Plenty of other counties voted for Beshear than Jefferson and Fayette. Check out the election map

J'rackpot!

No pun intended?

The problem was that it wasn't organized. It was just the first Halloween in Itaewon since COVID and the police didn't plan for there to be such a big turnout. The annual foreign food festival was held a few weeks before Halloween, and the district office closed down the main streets to hold it. They should've did the same for Halloween, but hindsight is 50/50 or whatever.

That's the thing: most of them are not willingly there. Military service is compulsory for all able-bodied, South Korean men.

Reminds me of this video where a shirtless Chinese fella is wading in a giant pool of kimchi. The video led to a Korean boycott of Chinese kimchi, which is commonly served in greasy spoons across Korea.

Hunter S. Thompson got into some weird hobbies in his later years.

Simmer down naw!

Up yours, woke moralist! We'll see who Kermits who!

It's that lobster fella, but I enjoyed reading it in Herzog's voice after you mentioned him.

Korea has casinos, but only non-Koreans can visit them, which usually leads to a lot of Chinese and Japanese tourists playing baccarat.

There aren't any laws for Koreans gambling overseas though. You might be thinking of Koreans using drugs overseas while visiting places that legalized it. That is illegal and Koreans can get hit with a drug test on arrival to Korea after visiting Amsterdam, Thailand, or any other place where they might have partaken.

Wait, so G is also your N?

Or, ya know, just explain in the post description why it's relevant to post a 26 year old article. Lots of lazy folk just read the headline and think that it's current events... but you know that, don't you?

Then maybe post the link as a reply in the current news post or at least explain why you're posting a 26 year old article on a world news sub.

Ah, there it is. My skimming ain't what it used to be. Stay in school, kids!

Article from 1997. Seems like OP is trying to push a narrative, but I guess the sidebar doesn't say posts have to be current news.

Do what now?

Beat me to it! First thing that popped into my mind when I read the title.

You can buy unlocked phones of other brands like Google or Xiaomi on the Korean equivalent of Amazon (Coupang), but they're substantially more expensive. I'd bet you can get Chinese brands at the little mom and pop shops that cater to Chinese students and immigrants.
