Any Guesses if Alcohol Was Involved in This?
Police on Saturday booked a man in his 50s over a scuffle with a woman on Line 2 of the Seoul subway.The man identified as Park got on the train at Seoul National
University Station at around 7 p.m. when he saw the woman identified as Ju sitting in a seat reserved for the elderly. You’re young, what do you think you’re doing sitting here? Get out of the way, he was quoted as shouting. When Ju refused to budge, Park pulled her out of the seat by her arm and slapped her in the face. However, police investigation revealed that Park, a carpenter by trade, was in fact the younger of the two at the age of 55, while his hapless victim was 56. Police quoted Park as saying Ju’s face looked so fresh he was convinced she was younger. He has been booked for assault.
He should have known better; you can only assault USFK soldiers on the subway and expect to get away with it. In fact you can assault, kidnap, beat, and force them to make coerced statements on national TV and get away with it.
