“The promised liver transplant didn’t take place because the woman contracted COVID-19 shortly before the operation. The chairman of the construction company, who was supposed to receive the liver transplant, has since died”
She’d have saved the chairman’s life… >

Thanks for sharing. >

I'd say it's more sad that she had to do that than anything. >

Yeah, I don't think this post fits this sub, like the onion is about humor and all. >

She had to sell her organs to survive, better fine her to fix it… >

No he could’ve taken a part and her liver would grow back >

TIL:  $3 million wan is about $2300 US >

It seems like a weird conversion until you realize they don't have a dual coin system. Like in America. You have dollars and you also have cents. In Korea There is only wan so think of a wan like a penny.
in the same way that 130 cents would be a dollar and 30 cents.
1300 wan would be 1 superwan and 30 wan if they had it like we do
Edit: removed some text to increase clarity of concept. >

Yeah sorry, fixed it. >

I think I'm not explaining it well. I'm not trying to make a direct exchange rate comparison between wan and cents (I mentioned the exchange rate 20 years ago in one sentence just as an aside and I think I'm going to remove that for clarity).
I'm just trying to express the idea that a WAN is equal to the concept of the dollar but that there is no Korean currency equal to the concept of the penny.
They have a single way to label their currency and it is wan. >

I’d give up anything for my kids, but not so they can get a fukking job!! >

Keep in mind that SE Asian culture is different. You are expected to take care of your parents after they age out of employability. >

Most families in the US expect that as well. Though different people have different definitions of "take care of".
For some people, "take care of" just means "financially support". More traditional families still expect, "provide for all my needs, potentially including my living with you."
Though the culture is changing, and younger families' ideology is starting to trend more towards, "I'm working my hardest so my kids won't need to take care of me".
