Where in the World in Chung Dong-young?

Poor Chung Dong-young—looks like the ex-Uri chief wants to retreat from the cruel, heartless world.

    Where is he indeed? :) Economic research for a month? I’m sure that will do him a load of good.

    I’d bet dollars to doughnuts that Chung Dong-Young’s “economic research” involves much the same process as O.J. Simpson’s tireless search for “the real killer” — an exhaustive examination of local golf courses.

    Chung should go to Greece to relax, but only, and I mean only after Shelton has had his turn because a person needs lovely things in their life without a former Uri head messing it up for them.

    it is a worthy man who can let go his grip on the edge of a cliff (when necessary).”

    Whata pompus, self-important ass! And quoting Korea’s very own Raskolnikov; how appropriate. At least KK had the balls actually to kill people.

    And in Chung’s case, it’s an ignoramus who hangs on to cliff’s edge after the cliff itself has fallen away. What a twit.

    and “studying at a European university”……

    proper punishment for this guy. I’d rather hang with a bunch of angry voting harabojis and halmonis after climbing pukhansan….

    something Chung has no right to enjoy. Let him spend his time insipidly tlaking anti-americanism to a bunch of 19 year-old socialist eurokiddies.

    He should be changing bedpans at a senior citizens home and undergoing reeducation at hanawon.

    Last time I heard, he is selling DingDong(a sublime American delicacy, 50 cents) at the subway station near MyuengDong.

    Say hello if you see him. And, don’t forget to buy his DingDong. He needs money to feed his family.

    Just buy one. And, throw it in the garbage can at the next station. The stuff is made of all sugar and oil. Fattening as hell. Don’t eat that stuff.

    Jeong Dong Young selling DingDong at MyengDong..See how these all rhyme nicely.

    Play with your name to see your future. It is all in your name!

    baduk, can you provide a visual for a DingDong? I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a candy? in South Korea nor the US.

    As for rhyming names, it depends on the orignal language of the name.

    You can have Korean names in English turn out as, let’s see…

    Ho Kook

    Sae Bae

    Ho Lee

    Moo Woo

    Well, I ran out of imagination, but you get the point.
