I mean props to him seemed like he was “wow yeah, fair enough”. In “other” countries that protester would have been beaten into a coma.
- It's the "i'm not paid enough to cause a civil war" expression. Dude just put his hands up like a roller coaster about to take a plunge, he know who his real enemy are but still have to make it look tough.
  
  Yeah feels that way. The hand up feels more like he’s with a sparring partner than “enemy of the state”. He’s got a rifle slung and doesn’t feel like he even thinks the protester will go for it. Pretty level headed by all involved including the guy conducting the ol’ spineroo.
- i mean military just showed up, did absolute minimum just so that they can't be prosecuted for refusing orders, and when parliament voted martial law away some of them left (before being ordered so) then the rest left anyway. they knew what was going on and didn't want part in this
  
  I mean, conscription sucks etc etc, but this is why you want it. You try* to make it so that the average citizen is represented throughout the military so that it's not just one group of gung ho violent dickheads that self select for abuse of power.
  Also, it means the guy in the crowd can also put up against that kind of bullshit as a civillian.
- I don’t understand why they tried to grab the phone in the first place?
  
  Probably so they could snap a selfie together
- Ya, my first thought seeing that was if it was the US they might have gotten shot doing that. Both sides handled that well.

try to grab phone
get samsung-ed
- My SO is Korean and if there's one thing I've learned, it's don't take a Korean's phone. There's a Taikwondo sword in the closet to remind me that my SO is way more hardcore than me.

I need to go outside... I read that as "get ratio'd."

Hey, if you have a shit connection, you can watch that frame by frame and really savor it! For once, peasant life works in my favor. 🎶Hay rakes UP and they stay UP 🎶

I can almost hear him say “bitchass” as he shoves him

"Man, you didn't have to do me dirty like that" *tries to bully the closest citizen

Waking up today to hear there was a coup attempt in South Korea that was just six hours long was wild. Can't wait for the k-dramas to cover a slightly fictional version of it in a year or two. Hopefully starring Ji Chang-wook as the main character.

Not only he got rotated, but it was caught in 4K
- Including him realizing he got rotated in 4k!
- He even raised his arms up knowing he was going to get his ass kicked.

"아니요"
- 알았어 이해했어
  
  Lmao. “Understandable, have a nice day sir”.
  
  한 장 할까?

I see a static image seems I'm losing some higlights from the SK coup attempt?
- Just a dude getting rotated
  
  Like an idiot
  
  He might be a table, cuz he got turned.
- When I click the static image it opens and plays as a gif.

Canada should have this, otherwise the Bears will overtake us by the next harvest

Can I get a read on whether this is Ki Aikido?
- I guess in Korea hapkido is more popular, which shares its origins with aikido. I have never seen ki-aikido performed live but I would have sworn shoving the uke at the end was out of the question.
