This only applies to underage gamers anyway. I don't know what the age of adulthood is in South Korea, but i'm assuming it's probably 18... This will have no affect on progaming.

Kind of misleading, I thought this would apply to StarCraft
Hopefully they'll do something like this for SC and other progamers.
14 hours is a little excessive

You don't have to add anything but if you want people to click it you better give a good idea of what the link contains. A summary, your thoughts, ANYTHING is better than just a link.

A six hour cut in the playing hours? Shit, that only leaves out 18 playing hours.

btw,
including that infamous case where parents apparently starved their child while raising a virtual child in an online game.

WTF! I never heard about that...

You can raise a virtual child? Where???

a 2-8am ban isn't too bad, 4-10 would be perfect though.

This is insanity. Regulating the hours at which citizens can perform private activities is just sick. They're trying to fix problems that barely exist with completely arbitrary, ineffective and intrusive solutions. The fact that it only applies to underage gamers doesn't make it ok. Their parents should have the last word on their upbringing, not the state, and if they want to skip school because they stayed up all night playing Starcraft, let them. Theres always a demand for McDonalds employees.

But this is a government that officially endorsed the fan-death myth, so what can you expect?

Yeah, stop those koreans from playing maplestory all day! Force them to play starcraft instead!

On a serious note, it's definitely not healthy for kids playing video games for 12+ hours a day, I guess they gotta stop it somehow. Something like that would never fly in the states though.
