Gaming in S. Korea

[Deadline]

Keun Bae?s wife, Heejung, was worried. At midnight, her husband got a call that roused him from sleep. Keun Bae had stepped into the hallway and closed the bedroom door behind him, but she still heard him speaking angrily into his cell phone: "Sell. Do as I say. Sell."

Heejung fretted for the next couple of days, and finally broke down. "What was that call all about?" she asked tearfully. "Are you in trouble?"

Keun Bae assured his wife that he wasn?t about to lose his shirt on the stock market. Although Keun Bae is an average guy ? 32, father of two, Internet caf? worker ? he?s also a high-ranking feudal lord in ?Lineage,? a massively multiplayer online game. And when you?re a high-ranking feudal lord, you?ve got to expect the occasional late-night phone call.

I always knew it was a huge thing in Japan and S. Korea, but never thought it was SO huge...

Why do you think it is so differnt where we live? Why is it so socially acceptable there, but I know that here in the US, its viewed as pretty un-professional and childish to play video games.
