Incredibly Bad Korean Law

I am in shock how bad Korean law apparently is? Are they human beings over there?

Back in 2004, Choi Jinsil, a Korean actress, was the model/spokesperson for Shinhan Engineering and Construction. Unfortunately for her, she was also married to an abusive husband and the victim of domestic violence.

That year, after another severe beating by her husband, she released pictures of herself with a black and blue face and pictures of the trashed apartment. She apparently did this to convince people that the husband was the attacker and she was the victim. It seems that domestic violence is common in Korea but rarely reported because "they" say it is the woman's fault. (How stupid can people be??)

Shinhan Engineering and Construction, decided that by releasing the pictures she had failed to keep her "social and moral honor," thus breaking the terms of her contract with them. But, because they are nice people (they think) they decided to only sue her for $2.3 million. And they won in court.

Sadly, Choi went on to commit suicide a few years later. Did that stop Shinhan Engineering and Construction? Of course not. They went back to court, and Korea's top court has just ruled that her two children are responsible for the $2.3 million due to Shinhan Engineering and Construction. One child is in pre-school and the other in elementary school.

Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid.

If i lived in Korea, i would call for a complete boycott of anything related to Shinhan Engineering and Construction. And i would hope that there is a way to remove those judges from the bench.

Are Koreans human?

Have i pointed out how stupid this is? Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid.

Stupid!
