Kang Ho Dong becomes the butt of a cruel joke

Posted by mountainmadman28 pts Wednesday, November 16, 2011

Popular MC Kang Ho Dong (currently on hiatus) recently became the subject of a joke that was slightly taken too far by Korean netizens. The incident started when a Twitter post started circulating the popular social networking site, claiming, "Kang Ho Dong found breathing in his house this morning". While the phrase may seem innocuous, the word "breathing" looks very similar to the word "deceased" in the Korean language. The joke is drawing particular attention after a similar incident that happened to Lee Hyori just two days ago, which also claimed that the popular singer had died. "Such an evil thing to say to someone who is in self-reflection," commented a netizen. "The Twitter jokes are getting out of hand," said another. Source: W Star News
