Marked NSFW as it is about a violent crime.
So to summarise what happened, a Korean couple in their 30s were in a group tour to the US with strangers, which included a Korean girl in her 20s.
On the way back to the airport on the last day, the wife asked the girl to close the curtain because the sun was too bright. And then the girl suddenly attacked her at the airport, scratching and even biting the wife’s face.
The airport staff separated them right away but then let them board the same flight, and when the lights were off in the flight hours later, the girl allegedly attacked the wife again with something seems to be a blunt object, causing a 5 cm (2 in) laceration and a doctor on board had to suture that wound without anaesthesia because she was bleeding a lot.
The girl was immobilised with rope and police took her into custody at Incheon.
This is my personal thought about what happened, but you know Korea and Japan has a very distinct type of violent criminals like the killers who just stab random people on the street over a personal grievance and isolation, without any unclear ideological motives like group hate or extremism.
I guess part of it is the culture that makes the people so stressed out and lowkey traumatised, because those kind of sudden explosion of personal grievance is often seen in civilians in war zones or something like that.
I mean, if the 30s woman slapped the 20s girl on the face, the thing she did in revenge makes some sense although it’s wrong. But over an ask to close the curtain is not really understandable. And the fact that it happened hours after the curtain thing is so weird too.
