건바운드 or “Gunbound” is a South Korean multiplayer online game that is so popular that one of the top Gunbound gamers in the world (Brazil) was kidnapped at gunpoint and held for his password. Apparently, the guy refused to give out the “sekret” word and was released five hours later, whereupon the four assailants were arrested.

I think I’d give up the password, myself…
I must be the only one that is of a Korean background that is not into online games. My non-Korean friends are amazed (and don’t believe me at first when I say I have no interest).
