American Consul Called In Due to Rowdy Americans in Busan

Here is some more blowback from the group of Americans acting like idiots this past weekend in Busan:

The American consul in Busan was called in by city authorities Wednesday over the firework mayhem caused by a group of Americans, including soldiers, on the Fourth of July.  
   
The Busan Metropolitan Government said in a statement Thursday that Woo Kyoung-ha, the city’s ambassador for international relations, summoned U.S. Consul Aaron Tiffany on the order of Acting Busan Mayor Byeon Sung-wan to express “strong regret” about the incident last Saturday and ask the U.S. Consulate that it doesn’t happen again.  
   
“Many Americans, including U.S. soldiers stationed in Korea, caused public anxiety on July 4 by shooting firecrackers in Haeundae and roaming around the streets without wearing face masks,” Woo was quoted by the city government as telling the consul.

Maybe they would be happier if all our soldiers were back in the US, where they belong?

Kyoung-ha means “Karen” in Korean. And they called someone with no ability to do anything but cancel student visas…

Let’s see some bureaucratic ambassador in a port city acting on the orders of an acting mayor calls in a low level bureaucrat to express regret…I hope he brought his trunks and a beach towel might as well enjoy the free day on the beach…the consul can control the actions of US troops about like the international ambassador can control the tide in the harbor….

Do they do this when Chinese tourists get out of line?

No. Emperor Xi’s people have a get out of jail free card in their vassal state.
