How does South Korea deal with pirates? Commandos and machine guns.

I just finished a different article about the same topic. That was pretty awesome. In the article I read pirates are still getting paid and the price is only going up. So I think we need step it up by using these methods more often to help and deter the pirates.

Not much of a surprise for me, having worked with them. Their national sport is a martial art. Sadly, searching the interweb I discovered some crap about Star craft being the number one national sport now or at least hugely popular.

Indeed, StarCraft and "e-sports" are enormously popular in Korea. I wouldn't be sad, if I were you, that a decade-old American product is so intensely popular not only in a field of rapid obsolescence, but also in a foreign country. Different strokes for different folks and all that.

On a side note, it is interesting that eleven of the crew of the Samho Jewelry were from Myanmar. Their country is run by pirates.

I wasn't there & obviously don't know, but I would bet the South Koreans did it up close & personally (i.e., man-to-man). It is so Russian that they used the bully manner of standing off & blowing them to smithereens with their ship's weapons after capturing them & their ship.
