Fourteen injured in South Korea as man rams car onto footpath and stabs shoppers
By Associated Press 1:31am Aug 4, 2023
A man has rammed a car onto a footpath in South Korea, then stepped out of the vehicle and began stabbing people at a shopping mall, leaving at least 14 people injured in the country's second mass stabbing in a month.
At least five people were hurt by the car, and nine others were stabbed in the attacks that occurred in a crowded leisure district near a subway station in the city of Seongnam, according to Yoon Sung-hyun, an official from the souther Gyeonggi provincial police department.
Authorities arrested a suspect in his 20s at the scene and were questioning him. Police did not identify the man or offer any immediate information about a potential motive.

The head of the National Police Agency described the attack "virtually an act of terrorism".
An official at Gyeonggi's provincial fire department, Ha Dong-geun, said at least two of the wounded were hospitalised in a serious condition.
Photos from the scene showed forensic units examining the halls of the AK Plaza, where the stabbings took places. A white Kia hatchback with a broken front window and ruptured front tire could be seen on a sidewalk near the subway station.
South Korea's Kyunghyang Shinmun newspaper published a video on its website that it said was sent by a witness. The footage showed a man wearing sunglasses and a black hoodies walking up the mall's escalator with an object in his hand.
A witness named Hwang Hee-woon told YTN television that he "heard a sound from the first floor that seemed like a scream, so customers and shop workers were gathering on the rails of the second-floor near the escalator to see what was happening below.

"Suddenly, someone told us the person who committed the crime was coming up to the second floor, so we ran away in panic," he said.
He ended up hiding inside a refrigerated storage room with some mall employees.
Last month, a knife-wielding man stabbed at least four pedestrians on a street in the capital, Seoul, killing one person.
The National Police Agency held an online meeting on Thursday with regional police chiefs to discuss ways to deal with stabbings and other attacks against random targets.
During the meeting, National Police Agency Commissioner Gen. Yoon Hee-keun made the comment about terrorism. Officials discussed increasing nighttime patrols in leisure districts and other crowded areas and strengthening security camera surveillance, according to the agency.

Hello again dear Korean langblr community ♡
It has been a LONG time since I used this blog as I haven’t been studying Korean since doing KIIP almost 4 years ago. But, I’m about to quit my full-time office job (which took up a lot of time and energy) so I’m hoping to have a bit more time to study again. Anyone who is still active, please like this post so I can follow!! or recommend your favourite blogs and I’ll share the list with everyone (advanced Korean langblr or nice studyblrs!)
#also anyone living in seoul or gyeonggi.... message me if you're interested in meeting up! :)#personal

why is writing fanfiction for gay media so f*cking hard *screeches*
#tv: beyond evil#beyond evil#jwds#han joo won#lee dongsik#local gay writes fanfic.txt#i have been stuck on the exact same fic that i shared an excerpt from a couple months ago for just that: a couple months#like bitch the amount of research i have to do??? for two pathetic gay men and their queer posse???#yes this is about BE what of it#Googled so much sh*t and i still can't figure out whether IC Manyang is situated north of Seoul or south of it#they said West Gyeonggi-do ik but we all know that West Gyeonggi-do is not a thing#which means theoretically it would be Southwestern Gyeonggi-do or Northwestern Gyeonggi-do#and personally i would love to put it in the south near Suwon#but bc this is also a crossover fic and i am in addition writing a one-shot to test the waters#i would have to completely add to canon for the other fandom#creating therefore an AU within an AU#i think i'm going to lie down for a sec and just leave this alone but i'll let you know how it goes

Olá, atletas! Os campeonatos Nacionais estão cada vez mais próximos e sabemos que isso tem se traduzido em treinos cada vez mais intensos e caóticos. E, para colocar ainda mais lenha na fogueira, que tal conhecer um pouco mais sobre nossos adversários?
GYEONGGI-DO SPORTS COMPLEX
GYEONGGI-DO
Vôlei, Taekwondo, Futebol, Hóquei, Patinação Artística, Snowboard, Natação, Ginástica, E-Sports, Judô
Cores Oficiais: Branco e Prateado
A história do Gyeonggi-do Sports Complex começa exatamente no ano 2000. Com a popularização dos complexos de treinamento esportivo, o local foi idealizado como um centro de treinamento exclusivamente de esportes invernais. O foco indivisível nessa categoria tornou o centro de treinamento uma referência e durante anos ele foi o maior rival do Hamdeok Complex sobre o gelo e a neve, com resultados muito acirrados entre seus representantes. Ainda que não tão latente e cheia de animosidade quando a rivalidade entre o Hamdeok e o Seogwipo, o complexo de Gyeonggi-do e o de Jeongdongjin-ri enxergam um ao outro como grandes oponentes e estão sempre ansiosos para se enfrentarem; a rivalidade, apesar de existir, é muito mais amigável do que com outros complexos. O Gyeonggi Knights e o Aurora Blades são velhos conhecidos, tendo se enfrentado inúmeras vezes e alguns de seus integrantes tendo sido juntos parte da seleção coreana de hóquei.
Por estar localizado em uma das cidades mais frias da Coréia, manter os locais de treino dos esportes invernais em temperaturas abaixo de zero nunca foi um empecilho para o complexo, mas sua proximidade com as montanhas é o verdadeiro trunfo, pois possibilita treinos em campo 3 vezes na semana para a equipe de Snowboard.
Foi somente em 2010, dez anos após a sua inauguração, que o Gyeonggi-do Sports Complex abriu suas portas para os demais esportes que atualmente elencam suas categorias de competição, mas não se engane; apesar de tecnicamente recentes, os times do complexo recrutam apenas aqueles que demonstram excelência em seus testes admissionais e atualmente diversos dos melhores atletas do país integram o time de futebol feminino Gyeonggi Guardians, o time de vôlei feminino Gyeonggi Vipers e a equipe de e-sports, os Gyeonggi Reapers, uma adição relativamente recente às suas categorias esportivas.
Seus treinadores fazem jus à frieza do local e, enquanto seus atletas tendem a ser mais amigáveis e maleáveis, a equipe encarregada de seu treinamento raramente entrega grandes sorrisos ou olhares e gestos calorosos. A exigência pela perfeição é o que rege os treinos (que quase todos os dias excedem o horário estipulado) e erros frequentes são vistos como incompetência ou desleixo. Essa pressão regularmente afeta o psicológico dos atletas do complexo que, por sua vez, afeta o desempenho deles em ação.
OBS: Lembrando que nós temos um formulário para o cadastro de NPCs que poderão participar dos nacionais, sendo eles atletas ou treinadores. Os NPCs mandados durante os amistosos para o Seogwipo Complex ainda serão usados, então não é necessário mandá-los novamente. Ao longo dos próximos dias liberaremos mais complexos, então fiquem de olho!

I'm gonna miss Halloween a lot this year, the seasonal depression is hitting pretty hard and it's tough not to have stuff like that to look forward to. After Itaewon last year it doesn't seem right to go out or dress up. It's still a pretty sensitive topic understandably. My school canceled their Halloween party again this year and I'm guessing there won't be much going on in Itaewon and Hongdae apart from some oblivious foreigners in costumes.
#i was supposed to be there actually but i went to visit some friends in gyeonggi-do instead#i know people who were and they all made it out safe thank god#i remember i was getting safety alerts saying that like 50 people suffered cardiac arrest#we were like wtf is this drugs or something#they were so vague about it#we didn't know what really happened until we saw the news
