Side note: IRL Bullying in Korea is next level stuff.
For example, in 2006, three ninth-grade students bullied their classmate for 20 days, asking the victim for money. On the days the demands weren’t met, they would knock the victim around using a baseball bat, scratch the victim’s chest with a barrette, physically abuse the victim with their fists and feet and even burn the victim’s arm using a curling wand in the classroom. The physical abuse also resulted in a protruded tailbone, leading to a six-week hospitalization.
The victim said in an interview with local media outlet Newsis at that time that she had no time for her wounds to heal because the bullies would burn her body to check the temperature of the hair curler every few days. The victim added that the perpetrators even peeled her healing scabs using their nails as a punishment.
