Meth Lab In Itaewon

A 32-year-old unemployed university graduate chose to run a drug lab rather than to find a job to make a living. However, his sweet dream did not last long as his underground business was uncovered by police about ten months later.

The man surnamed Hwang was arrested for manufacturing and selling 500 grams (17 ounces) of meth worth 1.6 billion won (1.4 million US dollars) from cold medicine, commonly found in drug stores, at his lab in Itaewon, a famous traveling spot in Seoul.

Hwang, an art university graduate, gave up his furniture workshop to go for a more profitable underground business in May last year by self-educating himself to make methamphetamine commonly known as ice from the scratch. He used a simple method by mixing the cold medicine and chemicals to produce pseudoephedrine, the basic material for ice.  [Aju Daily]

Denny doesn’t hate GIs.

He just stirs the pot.

If you think about it, you know exactly who he is.

Yep. Old tea in a new pot. Acorn trying to look like a tree.

The same low-key sniping of the old days…

Never saw it on Korean cable, but I imagine the announcer would have said something like:

Bray-king Bah-deuuhhh!

Fair enough. I believe we have discussed this before. If he is who we are thinking, then the issue has been his way of respectfully badgering with posts that are technically true, but often irrelevant and obvious attempts at pushing left wing talking points.

Kind of like if the DNC and the Jehova’s Witnesses had a lovechild.

No harm. Just annoying.

Keep knocking on those doors, Denny. You haven’t converted anyone yet, but I respect your convictions. At least they are the good kind. Not like that other guy’s

Wait! That looks like a married guy’s kitchen. Even through the post-op painkillers I can see that. He might actually be a good guy.

LIMERICK

Manufacturing meth
puts off the oder of death.
Most cops can tell
by tracking the smell
unless soju’s on their breath.

It used to be on Korean cable. Subtitled, not dubbed.

If you have an inkling or hunch
That adeoshi does meth by the bunch,
The best way to tell
Is not by his smell.
He just won’t take naps after lunch.

Hwang’s last meth batch went to waste.
Due to unexpected bad taste.
Breaking Bad’s recipe
Said to use “chili p”,
But Pinkman meant powder not paste.
