One of the great uses of the blog is to discuss important topics and get a variety of perspectives. If the topic is very 'hot' you can generate a lot of discussion from it.

What do you think of this kind of behavior from leaders? Do you think it damages Korea's reputation or sets a bad example for Korean youth?

It's a shame, indeed. If my memory serves me correctly, there is a scene in Bowling for Columbine where Marilyn Manson said the memorable quote.
When he was asked how he felt when he was ciriticized as a bad influence to teenagers, he said, "yet I'm a bad guy because I, well I sing some rock-and-roll songs, and who's a bigger influence, the President or Marilyn Manson? I'd like to think me, but I'm going to go with the President."
Well, I am going to go with the lawmakers when it comes to the negative influence to teenagers in Korea.
