Stupid TV

Re: Voice Actor Dies After Choking on Rice Cake During T.V. Show

Korean TV is as stupid as American TV, just less offensive (no Jerry Springer here). Here's the story, from the article above:
    "Jang Jeong-jin, 51, had been connected to an oxygen mask since he choked on a piece of rice cake, which cut off the flow of oxygen to his brain, during a Sept. 13 KBS program. Jang was one of several guests of the show participating in a rice-cake-eating contest."


God rest his soul.

I don't know why anyone would find a "rice-cake-eating contest" entertaining.
