Rage

The editorial below describes the appaling mishandling of a particluarly heinous crime in the news these days in Korea.

From [Editorial] Rape Demands Proper Punishment:
    Citizens are feeling rage at police handling of a major rape case in Miryang. Approximately 40 high school boys took turns raping five middle school girls over the course of a year, and that was shocking enough. The next shock came and turned into rage for the families of the victims and the general public when the police applied for arrest warrants on only three of the boys and "dismissed with caution" (hunbang) the rest.
