Kung fu Koreans

 

    As I have said many times, crime in Korea is very low. That is why I was shocked when two men were fighting in the middle of a busy intersection in downtown Seoul! The men clearly had a little too much soju to drink, and at first appeared to be bickering. Then the next thing I knew, one of the men yanked his belt off and started waving it around in the air at the other guy. Immediately I knew this would make a great video and so I started recording.




My favorite parts of this video:

1. The guy waving his belt around.
2. The second guy ripping his shirt off.
3. The fact that they are fighting in an intersection in downtown Seoul!
4.  At the end of this video I abruptly stopped recording because I looked up from my camera and some old guy was standing with his face a good foot away from mine not saying a word! I thought that he was mad at me for recording the two Koreans fighting. But he was simply curious about me. He looked like Frankenstein and I immediately screamed and turned away. Frankenstein was so drunk he waddled down the street like a turtle that had no chance of catching up with me. I only wish I had the guts to catch this on video!
