It would be a comedy, whereas, in real-life, it is a social farce. Isn't it about time to get rid of this sort of vice law that only makes the society look bad?

Isn’t it about time to get rid of this sort of vice law that only makes the society look bad?

Just round up all the worthless cops cruising around with their lights on doing nothing in Seoul at any given moment and you'd have at least 2000 ready to go. What’s shocking about 2000?

Why would you want her lover's money? That'll just make you feel worse. It's like pimping out your wife. 2,000 police officers? Yeah, just divorce from the whore.

2,000 police officers?

Adultery probably shouldn't be illegal, I should clarify. “Having said that, it probably shouldn’t be illegal.”

Adultery probably shouldn’t be illegal, I should clarify.

The funny/sad part about that story was that he asked a number of other people to do it for him before the friend in question finally agreed. Strangely enough, investigators weren't fooled! My favorite scam here - though it could be at least partially an urban myth, I suspect reinforced by the "Whiplash Charlie" character in MASH - involves stopping to help an injured person on the street only to be accused of having hurt him in the first place, then getting taken for compensation. I don't really find myself feeling all that much pity for somebody scammed for doing another guy's wife, as opposed to a Good Samaritan trying to help a stranger out. Having said that, it probably shouldn't be illegal. “This scam is better than the one during the “IMF” when the homeless guy had his friend cut off his feet and then claim that he had been attacked.”

Adultery is still a crime in Korea, unlike in so-called "advanced" countries. The root cause of this goof's fake-kidnapping caper is the fact that the cuckolded husband had him by the short-and-curlies and could demand cash not to make a criminal complaint.

I'm surprised that is hasn't been already. No question that this will continue to be a problem for authorities until it is made a punishable offense. I’m surprised that is hasn’t been already.
