These idiots just never learn that Korean customs inspects the military mail and many people have been caught and arrested for mailing drugs into Korea:

Prosecutors on Wednesday arrested U.S. soldiers and their Korean accomplices for smuggling bags of philopon methamphetamines worth 13.6 billion won ($11.9 million).

Suwon District Prosecutors’ Office arrested an American private, 20, and two Korean-Americans for infringing Korean narcotics laws. Prosecutors also booked without arrest another American private, 20, stationed at K-6 base in Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi Province, for providing an address to where the contraband could be sent.

They are also searching for four Korean-Americans.

An accomplice in California sent the drugs to Korea in December, prosecutors claim.

They weighed 4.1 kilograms ― enough for 130,000 users.  [Korea Times]

You can read more at the link, but I hope they are sentenced to the maximum penalty allowed by Korean law.

“Heh they packed it in a box of Sugar Smacks.”

Crank in a smack box?

That is false advertising.

Crack in a Coco Rocks box would be OK, though.

On a serious note, for anyone thinking of trying it. I’ve been out at the MMT numerous times when mail arrived. The first thing they do is load it all, not some, not a sampling, all onto a long conveyor belt where it gets scanned, sniffed, poked, and prodded. So don’t waste your time, they check all zee mailz.
