Drunkard. They're everywhere. Why blame the alcohol when you, yourself consume it without thinking of the consequences? Who's on the right mind drinking with 'female' acquittances in an apartment? And why do you let them sleep there, if you can't control your drinking habit? Can't remember? What a shame. You're very dangerous to anyone around you when you consume the alcohol because you will eventually rape anyone within your distance. Just go and get a help in a rehab!

And here we go with the "I was drunk" thing again. It's such a ridiculous excuse that like 99% of people who get accused of crimes use here because they know that the courts might give them a lower sentence. Korea really needs to catch up with other countries and stop allowing the voluntary consumption of a substance (drugs, alcohol, etc.) to be an excuse/defense for committing crimes.
