Korean Subway Fighting
I saw one video of this one old woman and this one young girl fighting. The video is started with the older woman saying grandma said "These things? These things?", "Why did you sit with you legs crossed?" and girl said "Who are you to talk to me? Don't go interfering in my business!". Finally the older woman was so angry. She grabbed her hair! The young girl screamed! After few seconds, the fighting ended. The young girl was so crying, and said "I don't like Korea... I don't like Korea..." then she called someone. Passengers talked to old woman "You'd better calm down, you should calm down."
Then old woman angry was at them and she pushed her to the side and went go back to her seat. The young girl was still was crying. < 난 추측했어요. I guessed.
That was crazing a situation. Maybe you are agreed. But that situation is not special because Korean subways often happen passengers often quarrel. (or quarrel often).
Anyway we should analyze that social phenomenon. Korea is influenced by the Confucian culture. So age is very important. This young girl violated that custom.
Recently this kind of situation has been increasing. Of course that video couldn't show every kind of situation. But we know that either this a young girl couldn't deal with the crisis or she was just a rude girl talking to an old woman who couldn't deal herself.
But I was surprised something else. (Something else surprised me.) < also ok.
Why didn't anyone stop them? They just said to them "Both of you, please calm down!, you guys same!"
Of course they couldn't deal with that situation well. But I think was a bad situation.
I don't know all of those situations so I can't say that all of them are bad.
But maybe Korean social have some social problem.
I saw that video's comments. The old woman has become little famous and that is kind of crazy. She often provokes some quarrel. Maybe I have seen someone like her too. So I can understand the mind of this young girl.
But she said, "I don't like Korea!". Then who is she? Maybe she grew up in some other country? Maybe so she couldn't deal that kind of crisis in any country? Anyway, she is too young and she shouldn’t have said that! She may feel Korea is different than her own country. If not, we can't sympathy with her.
As long as the crazy old people and the rude young people are in conflict, Koreans who have grown up in another country will continue to have a problem with their own identity. There are those who are Korean and can't deal with the problem. I live in US now. So that’s sad news. I hope when I go back Korea, those problems are completely solved!
