"A profoundly drunk North Korean man floated all the way to South Korea on a piece of wood this week—and he's been offered South Korean citizenship.
South Korea's Yonhap News Agency reported that the man, who appears to be in his 20s, was found hiding in a house on the island of Ganghwa, an hour from Seoul, on Sunday.
Yonhap reports that when the man was taken into police custody, he was only wearing his underwear and appeared to be intoxicated. (I've got to say, I've never found myself repatriated after a night of drinking—this guy deserves a medal). "

This is unbelievably awesome. I wonder what he was thinking when he sobered up! One thing is for sure, this is one of the greatest things to happen while drunk.

He had the best hangover of his life knowing that he escaped North Korea.

Sometimes you get drunk and instead of doing something awful, you escape communism and get offered citizenship in another nation!
|
*becomes the definition of epic win*
|
Try to escape with the most clever strategies you could ever think about : Get arrested and die Be drunk and think about nothing at all : escape north korea without knowing you did it
|
So does any North Korean who makes it over the border get to stay there?
If so, we (as in TL users) should start sneaking people across with scuba equipment.

The Hangover part III ?? Lol what a winner!

Apparently South Korea does not force people to go back to North Korea, but they do allow the option for them to go back if they want to.

Lucky guy. For those who don't know you get shot if your cross the DMZ, by your own people.

Fat chance they'd get a warm welcome after escaping if they decide to come back.

Once again another reason to add to why South Korea kicks ass.
That's one hell of a trip though lmao, hope that guy finds a better life in S.K if thats what he wants.
|
See,all good things come from drinking! But seriously tho,this guy will have one good story to tell his kids,kinda.
|
I would be soo interested in HOW he did that. Would be cool if he told the public ... well if he can remember what happened. A really lucky baller!
|
wow, he was offered citizenship? if I lived in North Korea, I'd be breaking out the booze and planks right now.
|
haha Hangover part three... lol
wonder if he will see it all nowand that you can live without being brainwashed
Quality like my nights out haha
|
Most people throw up when they drink to much. This guy escaped from one of the worst shitholes on the planet, a feat even sober geniuses have had trouble with. I salute you, random drunk guy. I salute you.
|
|
: P It's hard enough to even get out of the country without being shot/tortured. This guy can do it with a mean drink and a raft.
|
this man knows how to party
