DJ blamed NK's broadcasting which was actually against him.
He said, "If they really want me to be winner,  do you think they
brodcasted in that way ?", and "They are scared with a really clean
and capable government coming up".

Actually, I recall back to the 1988 olympics where the infamous US news
media eager to make stories made many reports on the thousands of korean
children who are adopted from overseas. They even showed the many children
boarding airplans and such. In typical US media fashion they made it into
a heart-wrenching story commenting on how bad the conditions must be in
Korea so that the country could not take care of its own orphaned children.
I recall at that time that the government, embarassed over this (and many
other things the media reported - ain't they wonderful?) announced that they
will work towards banning the practice of foreign adoptions.

By the way, as for Woody and Soon-Yi, more power to them. They are both
adults and can make their own decisions. I doubt the Korean governement
even bothers to worry about them (which I don't either :)

Friends,

.

         At first, I thought that Chinese food was without rival.
Cantonese food is very, very good and it is very hard when Cantonese
style food is in front of me to concentrate on anything else. But, I
believe that my favorite choice of food is Spicy Pork. No! I know that
it is! I love Spicy Pork. In fact the spicer it is the better. When I
first had this dish, I have to admit I was very "light-headed". But,
after eating it continously, I really fell in love with the taste. The
only thing that can rival Spicy pork(that I know of is the Korean style
of Sweet and Sour soup. Man, I'm gettin' hungry and shit. Ahh! And, the
Ogi..well my Korean practically not there. So, please excuse me.. Squid
soup. Ogigai chigai.. Well .. Ahhhh! 

If it is possible could someone tell me the origin of why Koreans
invented/perferred this specially fantasy fire hot taste. It really goes
good on a bourbon stomach. Ahhh! Oh! And recipes, lots and lots of
recipes! Please!

FINAL ANALYSIS

	After the presidential election in Korea, there have been a lot of
words flying and fighting around, all were groundless, erroneous, and
purposeless, though. They were  the words just FOR the words. It was only
desperate "Mom-boo-rim"  of the incapable people who can achieve nothing in the
strong stream of history.
	As a molecular geneticist I found a striking and earthshaking fact
intrinsically kept within the Korean people. At first I was so shocked that I
decided to keep it as secret. But persevering and persisting persuasion of my
dear friends "Ho Dor Seung, Rachel Seung, Hyunsuk Seung, or simply a ghost
Seung family" made me change my mind and now I am going to reveal
the result of my analysis hoping it to be a wake-up call to Koreans.
	It was in 1960's that people especially kids were sneaking into the
movie theater for killing time or a pastime. In 1970's "Jjal-jjal-iee" replaced
its place throughout the country as the pastime of "Sam-chun-man (30 million
people)." Ever since Japanese introduced "Hwa-too" into Korea, intensionally for
the purpose of destroying the body, mind, and soul of the Korean people, it has
been working its way quietly and nibble by nibble eating up the country and is
declaring its victory. From 1980's "Go-do-ri" took charge as the pastime of
"Sa-chun-man (40 million people)." People were waiting for the holiday season
such as "Choo-suk" and "Sul-lal." For what? For playing "Go-do-ri." Then they
were waiting for the weekend to come every week, fretting for the night time to
come everyday, and now they even sacrifice lunch time not for lunch but for
what!
	Why the hell do they do that? From the viewpoint of molecular genetics,
every single human behavior is controlled by the genetic material he or she
has. They play ""Go-do-ri" because they have related genes. Therefore, the
answer to the above question is that they have "Go-do-ri" gene.
	In the result of the presidential election in December, we can clearly
see how much they are controlled by "Go-do-ri" gene. They voted for higher
ranked O=| /\|- (3) instead of other candidates who are all []|- |-- (0).
        O   []                                               O   |==
                                                                __|__
                                                                  O
	Come on, wake up, Koreans.
	Please control your gene expression by controlling your environment.

	I am doing this for you for a wake-up call.

I think you're right to a certain degree.  I didn't mean to imply that every
student that walks up to the counter was with an intention to steal the pen,
but I think as long as they know that the pen is tied up to something, they
just know not to take it.  I don't know if the string serves as a sort of a
reminder that it is not yours.  I think it just is a sign of it being tied
somewhere.

As far as I know,  the run-off election does not exist in
Korean presidential election systems.

DJ Kim who was a candidate for presidency, now retired,  insisted to adopt
the run-off election,  in case that nobody obtain more than 50% of votes.
However,  the rulling party, Minja  didn't accept his proposal.

You are right.  YS won the election with 42% of the votes.  In other words,
52% of the votes didn't support him.   YS got only 36% of the votes outside
his homtown area.   The second runner, DJ got about 33% of the votes outside
his hometown area.  Outside their hometown areas,  there were only  a margin
of .5 million between YS and DJ.

I agree that it is ackward.   YS has very week support outside his hometwon.
In the future,  the run-off election is suggested to be adopted for
the good democratic system in Korea.

IMHO, the schedule does not look too bad, except for the Pusan portion.  If
this is going to be the only time you are ever likely to visit Korea, I think
Pusan is certainly missable, in favor of other locations.  You could do this
and still include the trip to Kyongju (which should not be missed, IMHO).

If you are interested, I can post some suggestions for a "Pusan Replacement
Itinerary" when I have just a bit more time.
