Column: [Abnormal eyes of Alberto Mondi] Korea is fifty-fifty to a greater extent than amend because it's a drug-free country
For foreigners, 1 of the most impressive things nearly Korea is its safety. It's non tardily to honour a solid pose down where yous tin forcefulness out become around inwards belatedly black in addition to last perfectly safe. OECD's 'Better Life Index' ever ranks Korea inwards acme five equally the safest country. I mean value Korea's depression charge per unit of measurement of drug purpose plays an of import component on it.
Drugs started to spread inwards Europe since 19th century. It has a deep root. It's similar a shot illegal inwards most countries including Italy, only it's all the same common. I was surprised to honour that Korea doesn't receive got social issues regarding to drugs in addition to that most Koreans receive got never seen drugs. It was likewise interesting that it's a taboo to fifty-fifty elevate drugs. According to United Nations Office on Drugs in addition to Crimes, the charge per unit of measurement of marijuana purpose was 14.6% for Italia in addition to 0.29% for Korea. The charge per unit of measurement of cocaine purpose was 2.2% for Italia in addition to 0.03% for Korea. Korea is basically a drug-free country.
I commencement started to request heed nearly drugs when I became interested inwards culture, arts, in addition to music inwards high school. My favorite poets Rimbaud and Baudelaire smoked opium in addition to writers Jean-Paul Sartre and Allen Ginsberg often mentioned drugs inwards their works. Singer Bob Marley smoked marijuana in addition to Beatles' vocal 'Lucy inwards the Sky alongside Diamonds' was banned because its initials 'LSD' reminded of drugs.
Some people portray drugs equally arcane. But the addicts I saw inwards Italia were completely contrary from how it's portrayed inwards Rimbaud's poems in addition to Bob Marley's songs. Drug addicts ever looked anxious in addition to uncomfortable wherever they were. They couldn't receive got a normal life because they spent all the coin on drugs. They couldn't fifty-fifty consume out, become for a movie, or receive got beer alongside friends. Some people committed crimes to purchase drugs. I'm non a scientist or a physician in addition to hence I can't clearly define the danger in addition to the addiction of drugs. But from what I've experienced inwards Italy, drugs is sum of problems such equally waste product of money, physical in addition to emotional pain, in addition to struggles of friends in addition to family.
Because Europe in addition to USA receive got a lot of drug users, in that place has been constant debates on whether to pass national coin to ban it, or to legalize it to decrease illegal purchases in addition to to collect tax. I promise Korea learns from Europe's error of opening upwards to drugs in addition to stay equally a drug-free country.
