A father of a 27-year-old high school graduate has been fighting one of the country’s largest automobile manufacturers for the past six years over alleged employment discrimination experienced by his son and son’s coworkers because they performed their obligatory military service.
The Constitution stipulates that no citizen shall be treated unfavorably on account of the fulfillment of his obligation for military service, but apparently that is not the case for Kia Motors’ workers.

S Korea stops dolphin show
2012-03-13 01:34 pmunreal.livejournal.comSouth Korea’s Seoul Grand Park zoo has agreed to suspend a popular dolphin show over claims by activists that one of the animals was captured illegally, city officials said yesterday.
Seoul city mayor Park Won-Soon said the zoo would temporarily suspend its daily show, which is performed by three Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphins, from next Monday. Animal rights activists have called for the release of the dolphins, saying one called “Jedol” was illegally captured last July by fishermen off the southern resort island of Jeju. “I believe Jedol must be allowed to swim freely,” Park told reporters. Park, a longtime liberal activist, won the mayoralty last October in a shock upset for the ruling conservative party. He joined the main opposition party last month. The zoo said the 13-year-old Jedol would be reintroduced into the wild in March 2014 after gradual adjustment training. It said the other two dolphins would be kept in captivity because they were old and weak. Zoo officials said they would decide whether to permanently cancel the show after gathering opinions from experts, activists and citizens. South Korea’s law bans the unauthorised seizure of dolphins and whales.

unreal.livejournal.comThe leader of the main South Korean opposition party pledged on Monday to scale back ambitious plans to build more nuclear power plants if it wins elections this year, saying Japan's Fukushima crisis had sent mankind a "shocking warning".
Opinion polls show the opposition Democratic United Party (DUP) leading the ruling conservatives in next month's parliamentary elections, while the race for the presidency in December is seen as wide open.
"The Fukushima accident was a final shocking warning to the human race about how problematic nuclear energy could be," DUP chairwoman Han Myeong-sook told reporters.
On Sunday, Japan marked one year since an earthquake and tsunami killed thousands and set off a radiation crisis at the Fukushima power plant, the world's worst nuclear accident since the Chernobyl disaster 25 years ago.

goshipgurl.livejournal.comThe ladies of T-ara is finally on a well-deserved break.
An associate of T-ara’s agency, Core Contents Media, recently told Star News that “T-ara’s Eunjung, Soyeon, Hyomin, Boram, Qri,and Hwayoung started their break yesterday (the 12th). Jiyeon is the only one who wasn’t able to join them due to her filming duties on her drama, ‘Dream High 2.’ The members will each enjoy their break until the end of this week.”
The associate continued, “This is actually their first long break since their debut back in the summer of 2009. This will be a chance for them to recharge.”
Since last year, T-ara has been quite busy promoting their hit songs, “Cry Cry” and “Roly Poly“, and never really had a chance to rest when they released “Lovey Dovey” this January.
In February, T-ara released the Japanese version of “Lovey Dovey” and ranked third on the Oricon daily single chart. Earlier this month, they received the Best Pop Artist Award along with TVXQ at the ‘Billboard Japan Music Award 2011‘ held in Tokyo.
Despite their busy schedule, T-ara also managed to do some good deeds by promising to donate their profits of Japanese “Roly Poly” to the victims of Fukushima nuclear disaster.
This break is long overdue for the members and will be a very sweet one for them.
Meanwhile, T-ara is planning a large-scale concert as well as launching their official fan club this summer.

unreal.livejournal.comThe plot: Minho & his gf were on the run with a bag of money(which I guess was stolen from those bastards who killed him) and end up staying at an old empty house. The house belongs to a couple(Joo Won & Kang Byul). Minho's gf found Kang Byul's diary & from that relates the past that happened. Kang Byul who was sick(maybe a communicable disease) was taken away by the medical team to be isolated but escaped to see Joo Won again.

On March 11, Teen Top was in Taiwan for a fan meet. The fans had followed them around all day via taxis and private cars.
