While since today - surprise, surprise!! - 'Seoul officially held Pyongyang responsible for the sinking of the "CheonAn" navy frigate', not everyone in S. Korea seems to be really convinced...
Unsurprisingly(^^), today's ("left"-liberal)Hankyoreh has some problems with the "evidences" provided by the "Int'l Investigation Team":
Indisputable evidence?
A Korean military official points at the fragment of a propeller labeled “I am North Korea” and says, “I found it!”
The fragment has been presented as the evidence that North Korea was responsible for the attack on sunken Navy vessel Cheonan by the joint military-civilian investigation team.
The joint investigation team has insisted that serial number on the fragment of a propeller includes North Korean-style characters. Some, however, have voiced concern about the announcement, saying that this fragment may be too old to trace to the manufacturer.
According to Cheong Wa Dae (the presidential office in South Korea or Blue House) spokesman Lee Dong-kwan, during a telephone conversation between President Lee Myung-bak and Japanese Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama yesterday, Lee promised to present “indisputable evidence” in reporting the findings of the joint military-civilian investigation team.

Christian, you are famous in New York now! The Brooklyn alternative newspaper The Brooklyn Rail published my story on you in their May edition. On paper only; the good old fashioned way. Here a link anyway... http://brooklynrail.org/2010/05/express/waygooks-stories-from-korea-compiled-and-edited-by-j-scott-burgesonIf you want a copy of the paper, follow the link and ask the publishers to send you one.
Btw, I recently went to Dandong (great views over the Yalu river to North Korea)and Shenyang. that ugly town has the biggest Koreatown in China... complete with a great dogmeat alley, lots of official NK restaurants and an incredibly large sex industry.
Went to Qingdao too. The home of Tsingtao beer. Great place. They got cool old seamen's bars serving the best of the beer ... bars like right out of a Joseph Conrad novel. Didn't know that that kind of bars still existed anywhere.
Beer 20 元、hooker 300 元, can't remember the prices for tattoos and haircuts. Full service bars, the way it should be.
What's happening in Berlin?
