    This story should become a standard case study in all English hogwons.

    “See, children, if Mr. Lee had studied harder he would have been able to spell ‘Supply’ without any trouble.

    In the future when you become an adult, if you want to embezzle a $1 million from your company and not get caught then you better work hard now to improve your English skills.

    So everyone, please make sure to do tonight’s homework. Okay?”

    Hasn’t the former vice-president of a certain chaebol claimed that the company had set up slush funds to be used by the members of the founder’s family? Embezzling would be involved in creating these funds.
