Remember the shocking controversy a few days ago when a gruesome poem was discovered amongst a collection of poems written by children?  A 10-year-old girl, A, had written "On a Day You Don't Want to Go to Hakwon" in which she advises a graphic, detailed method of consuming your mother.

On May 11, A had an interview with Joongang Ilbo to give her own thoughts on this issue. She said, "Is it wrong of children to have scarier thoughts than adults?  A poem is just a poem, but I think adults, who are accepting this as truth, find it very cruel."


When asked about her thoughts on the publication company's retrieval and disposal of the book of poems, A stated, "At first, I was not that happy, but now I'm okay.  However, I do not know if I'll keep writing poems in the future."
