Breaking: 14 music professors are arrested for corruption
NewsThe Korea Times reports that more than a dozen music professots have been referred to the prosecution authorities after the police investigated allegations of fixing exams and underhand gifts.
Five are charged with committing college admissions fraud while serving as examiners for practical music tests at Seoul National University and three other universities. One is a former head of SNU College of Music (pictured).

Can we invite the Korean Police officers over here? They’d have a field day…
They take music very seriously there. If that would happen in Europe, the perpetrators would, at most, be suspended by management.
Stop idealizing people that you don’t really know much about. I’ve caught them doing so much nasty stuff in order to get up the ladder. For example, one had the nerve to say that a well-known French composer wrote a piece that she premiered when in reality it was a piece written for a competition, not her.
Rape culture is also another major problem both in Korea and in Korean communities outside of Korea.
I once ordered sushi in a Korean restaurant, but then I was told they only serve pizzas. Maybe it was my new glasses. But they were very friendly.

There is no rape culture in Korea. You’re slandering the entire county.
Yeah, buddy. Just sweep it under the rug and hope it away.
You are slandering against people on the basis of their membership to a particular ethnic group.
Your name suggests you probably being from Japan.
Speaking of ‘rape culture’, you should in that case address taboo questions such as Japan’s horrendous war crimes, including systematic sexual slavery of hundreds of thousands of women from other countries, and dark undercurrents in contemporary Japanese society:

Unlike what you say about the Koreans, this is not a general statement about Japan or the Japanese people, or about any other country or its peopIe. I just find your unsubstantiated prejudices utterly appalling.
This was a reply to the comment from ‘Ishihara’.
As a Korean myself, I must say that I have seen the worst over there… bullying, money laundering, spreading false rumours, sexual misconduct, rape and grooming.. it’s a corrupted country
