    Oh well, someone please write about Great Housing Gambling which is far more catastrophic than internet gambling. At least, internet gambling doesn’t wreck the whole economy.

    I think that the housing bubble in Korea is about to pop but can’t really articulate as I am not an expert on this topic. While there were plenty of forewarning and analysis about the housing bubble in US last several years, I could not find any about Korean housing bubble.

    Anyone knows a good online/offline resource that covers this topic?

    Internet games + money obsession + compulsive behavior. If that ain’t exactly the Korean way, well……it is.
