1. Three month ago we wrote: "During the past days the S.Korean media addressed the ongoing/increasing STATE TERROR - related to the next G-20 Summit in Seoul - against 'undesirable minorities', such as migrant workers, poor street vendors, homeless people.."

Now the "ongoing/increasing STATE TERROR" claimed a first fatality, as MTU reported a few hours ago: "Today one Vietnamese migrant worker died in Gwangmyeong city.
When Seoul immigration raided his company in Gasan-dong (Geumcheon-gu, Seoul) on Oct 29, he tried to run away and fell down from 2nd floor to the ground. He was sent to the hospital, but already he was hopeless at that time.
It is a killing by immigration crackdown..."

2. Today's Korea Times published the following f*cking stupid story:

Arrest warrant for drawing rat on G20 promotion poster?
 

The prosecution sought an arrest warrant for a 40-year-old man who drew a picture of a rat on a G20 Seoul Summit promotion poster but the request was rejected by the court...

According to the Namdaemun Police Station, a 40-year-old university instructor identified only as Park and his friend were apprehended Sunday for drawing a black rat on seven of such posters with spray paint near Lotte Department Stores in central Seoul early in the morning.

The added image to the poster gave people the impression that a huge rat was holding the lantern symbolizing the G20 Summit with the words, “The world is watching Korea.”

The image of a rat is often used to mock President Lee Myung-bak by liberals.

Police asked the prosecution to file arrest warrants for the two for violence and damaging public assets.

However, the Seoul Central District Court rejected the request saying that there was no risk of them fleeing...

Park reportedly said, “I thought the government was making too much of a fuss about a trifling matter. Any G20 country can host the Summit and it is not much of a big deal. I drew a rat because in Korean the pronunciation, ‘Jee (rat in Korean)’ is similar to that of the English letter ‘G.’ It was an act of humor.”

His lawyer, Park Ju-min said, “It seems that the police are trying to make an example out of Park.”

“The G20 is a very important event for the country and tarnishing its promotional poster is not acceptable,” Cho Chang-bae, who filed for the warrant, told a local daily. “We felt that he was trying to defame the global event.”
