from the article:
>Some men adopt even more extreme measures, like the 27-year-old Park.

>“Some time ago, I sold one of my kidneys to get money to buy a Hermes Kelly bag as a present for my girlfriend for our first anniversary,” said Park.

>Despite working a couple of part-time jobs and as a private tutor for three months, he still did not have enough money for the Hermes bag. Desperate, he answered a note on a toilet wall of a general hospital that read: “Looking for human organs.”

>Today, Park realizes that what he did was in vain.

>“I broke up with her after that, and I regret doing such a thing,” said Park.

HE broke up with HER....riiiight...

Show us the scars or it didn't happen!

If this is true, and he actually did sell a kidney to buy a designer bag for his girl, then he's a chump and I don't feel bad for him.  What kind of guys actually sell organs to buy a designer bag?  You gotta be an idiot for even THINKING about it.

What's that baby? You'd like a new handbag for christmas? Well... ah... sure! Anything for you darling!
From another perpective, how would feel if you were the girl, and your bf sold his kidney to buy you something? Could you break up after that?

I met someone here who had a boyfriend pay for a semester of college so she could come back to the country when a new academic year started. In the mean time she's cheating on him in Korea.

Actually we would immediately be breaking up if I found out my bf did something like that.  That's creepy, obsessive stalker behavior.  We'd be selling the damn bag to get boy some therapy. 

Shut yo mouth!  As a woman I would be pissed if my boyfriend went through all this havoc for a damn bag; wait a minute, re-reading the article. This wasn't just any Hermes, it was a Kelly bag. There are wait lists for the wait list for a Kelly; okay now I'm quickly hiding my indignation.

Same. I would run like the wind. That is some terrifying creepy behavior right there.

She just FLUSHED that relationship down the drain. Their relationship was filled with toxicity anyway.

From what I've observed in my time here...in general, Korean guys are whipped. Zero sympathy for this guy trying to buy love with a handbag for a Korean princess. Korean chicks play these fools...
