So when we're talking the example a few foreigners in using that to generalise and profile the behaviour of every other foreign national in the country it's legitimate profiling in the interests of national security.
The government of Korea has a duty to protect EVERYONE... but I'm glad to know that, in your eyes, a Korean's safety takes priority over my own and the fact that, like all of us here, I'm a taxpayer means nothing.
Regarding the profiling and mass testing: When big clusters originate from churches do they mass test everyone in the region belonging to that church denomination?
Likely comes down to numbers. How many English teachers are there in Gyeonggi? How many people at say, a big Korean megachurch or in Shincheonji?There is likely a point at which it is feasible and which it isn't.It's not like they profiled ALL foreigners, as some have erroneously claimed.
I live in a building with a shincheonji training center and they have not been allowed back into their space yet by the gov and the landlord
Only had two classes this morning and am facing a long afternoon. I'll probably plop down on my yoga map and do my "stretching" for an hour but that's probably all I'll be able to do. My first time co-teacher is young and gets nervous having to discuss basic things with me. I'm considering popping in next door and telling her that I've fallen head over heels in love with her over the last months and just needed to get that off my chest to see how that shakes up the afternoon. I am in a committed relationship, so would also have to explain the concept of unrequited love before summing it up with "Just thought you should know, have a great weekend." Down sides?

Soooo, is there some kind of backstory behind this, or is it because of your long afternoon, lol?
I saw her hemming and hawing in the hallway and just had the random thought that if she gets flustered over finding a pencil on the floor, how she'd react if I told her I was in love with her.
share edgy memes about Korea with her but with zero context.
Bill Maher: NEW RULE!If you have a website that lets you book bus/train tickets, then you let the user select the destination FIRST. THEN when I bring up the list of departure stations, you ONLY show me the stations that have routes departing from them TO MY SPECIFIC destination. The KTX booking is HORRIBLE for this. I'm going to Gwangju. That is the given. I don't want to sort through all the stations in the system, pick one that is close to my house and then get a "Route not found." JUST show me the ones I can depart from, you idiots.
gathering them from the school garden.
How can someone be that wasteful and oblivious?
Rule #1 of government spending: Spend it or lose it in next year's budget. It's true the world over and is unavoidable.
