		<description>just looking through old comments-- yes, i know its more than 2 years old, but I just had to point it out. No one fines you if you&#039;re a female and you smoke in public in korea. There&#039;s no policy or law indicating such-- that woud be absurd! But it&#039;s just a bad image to some, especially to the older generation. 
Also, the finger thing is equivalent to giving the middle finger-- it supposedly represents sexual intercourse or a man&#039;s privates in a very private way</description>

		<description>Accccctually, not to defend Rufa, BUT, I think on the basis of pure numbers, there actually may possibly be more liars (who spells it &quot;liers?&quot; - I am looking at you Rufa!)in Korea (both North and South). Seoul is the second largest city on the planet by population. On this alone, one may hypothesize that the actual count of liars may outnumber on the side of  S. Korea and N. Korea. Of course, I am just speaking to the literal sense of the words. To Rufa - what the hell are you talking about? </description>

		<description>I don&#039;t like what u said in final. 
First of all, I have to say, I like japan, and i like japanese people too. Korean believe it bcuz it&#039;s true. Korean know that Dokdo belongs to Korea becuz history says so. Japanese don&#039;t know what&#039;s the truth bcuz they change the truth. Japan changes their school text book to brainwash teenagers, so that teenagers would believe Dokdo and East sea is theirs. They were always trying to steal something from Korea. For a long time. </description>

		<description>along my comment to Rufa Salvacion, I would like to point out some things to be corrected. One, Dokdo, is clearly Korean property. REASONS: there are several historical evidences pointing out that Dokdo was found and ruled by Koreans since the 17th century, about 1648. Plus, military maps drawn by Japanese military personal during the Japanese occupation indicated Dokdo as Korean island. Two, the title of East Sea was titled since ancient times and was used widely between Korea, China, and Japan, as Shirley Lin pointed out. Three, those drunk Koreans that the author of this article pointed out are the truce. However, I would like to point out that most of those drunk people are drunk because of their stresses from their various social activities including their company affairs.</description>
