Korea has one of the highest ratio of broadband connected households in 
the world (if not the highest). They access korean content extensively, 
but not as much english content, that's why you never see them in any 
context you access.

Most of my spam is either from the US or from APNIC, that doesnt make me 
want to null-route all of the non-RIPE networks.
