		<description>Her husband bought her ticket to return to Vietnam but she decided to suicide. 
Living with her korean husband may have been a hell, but returning to her land may have been worst. Why? I think this is the place were we must dig.</description>

		<description>Didn't Van Halen write a song about what she wanted?


Uh-huh.


I was thinking of "Best of Both Worlds".  You were thinking of "Jump".  You are just soooooo wrong. 

Actually it is quite amazing there isn't more suicide (or murder).  Most of the Korean/Vietnamese marriages make the GI/Juicy relationships looks like a Disney fairytale in comparison.

While the Seoul immigration office has a lot of Russian girls and Filipinas trying hard to not look like "entertainers", the smaller offices are filled with pathetic old Koran farmers and foreign peasant girls with a look of tired bewilderment and an aura of sad resignation.  Very sad, really.

Word on the Street says there is a high degree of undesirability, some level of mental illness and a bit of violence among many of the Korean men who are forced to go against 5000 years of tradition and find a wife outside the country.

In the end, Prince Charming doesn't have to marry a bargirl or a third-world peasant... so many of these girls are setting themselves up for failure before they even arrive.  The problem isn't a Korean husband so much as it is the WRONG Korean husband.

As for being married to a Korean, there is little problem with Korean Thinking... usually, Woman Thinking is the real handicap.</description>

		<description>I am sure she thought about it and came to the conclusion that death was better then being married to a Korean man.</description>
