“North bad, South good”

You should know very well that it's not that simple with any regime the US props up. South Korea has been getting better, but it has a nasty history. Mass murders, disappearances, it's not pleasant. It's not like the revolts they were having in support of the North were fake. I think it took them until the 1990s to have a government that wasn't a military dictatorship with reeducation concentration camps.

“The accused’s confession to the police reveals that the couple may have had an argument over these issues on Friday and she could have hit her husband on the head with a heavy object. He may have fell unconscious. We are yet to find the object that was used to attack him,” a police official said.

Yeah, I have a feeling something was lost in the translation. You would mangle your hand doing that.

Likely a skull fracture. I doubt it was done with a fist. More likely a bat.

Nikhil's nose and some teeth were broken.

He was on a diplomatic visa though is what the state department noted.

Edit: should've only been an A2 visa and not diplomatic immunity.
