Pop-up at the 강진동초 site.
I stole this story from Korea Beat, who has translated a Naver article about a kindergarten teacher who taped shut the mouth of one of her students. This happened at the kindergarten adjacent to Gangjin East Elementary School. I used to teach the kindergarten students there once a week, in the same room shown on the video news report. An excerpt of the Korea Beat translation:
At this kindergarten on the 19th a teacher, Choi, used tape to close the mouth of 6-year old Yun for 30 minutes.
The reason was that the child frequently disturbed class and would not listen to the teacher.
The tape used was 5-centimeter vinyl tape of the kind used for packing boxes, kept at the school for arts and crafts.
The boy’s parents said this afternoon that he sufferes from sleeplessness and feelings of fear.
The school's website no longer allows people to view teachers' photos and now requires teachers to log-in. That prompt was not there a few days ago.
Cute kids. Like everyone else in Gangjin, they had no idea what I was talking about.

HAHAHAHA Kid should'a shut up.
personally, I thought this was a great idea. non-painful, adquately humiliating, punishment-suits-the-crime, solves the problem instantly, maybe the kid'll learn next time.
