Pro-North Korean Professor Suspended
A South Korean professor who made headlines earlier this year with his pro-North Korean activities has now finally been suspended by Dongguk University:
Dongguk University said Sunday it is suspending a controversial sociologist whose inflammatory pro-North Korean remarks have already brought down a prosecutor general. The university will temporarily suspend Prof. Kang Jeong-koo pending the outcome of a criminal investigation. The proposal was submitted by key figures in the university and will be put before university president Hong Ki-sam and the Ven. Hyun Hae for approval.
This whole thing from the beginning was foolish because Kang was made into a hero for the left by the rightists trying to shut him up. It was better to let him wallow in obscurity than giving him a national platform to preach his idiocy.
