Most countries don't allow private police, especially for individuals. This is probably the case in South Korea. So even if he wanted, he couldn't.

- bayindirh 4y agoNormally I'm not moved very easily, but reading the Intercept article really makes me freeze a little inside, and think "how's that even possible". There's a real alternate reality on this planet.
