I think punishment for sex offenders will be more severe this year. There were too many bad and sad things happened in 2012, and it seems the worst year to me when you see the sexual crimes. Especially rape targeting little kid occured a lot and I couldn't just believe those are still happening even though all mass media broadcast and talk about it. I think it is because the laws against these sexsual criminals are not afaid enough. Unlike other countries (U.S.A, Japen, China etc) South Korea laws have no extreme punishment like death sentence and life imprisonment. S.Korea actually has those two, but laws are based on the belief of human's rehabilitation,so S.Korea does not actually execute those two sentences. However, now, first chemical castration was sentenced for the Naju city rapist case, and the rapist got the death sentence(verbally). Furthermore, Park Geun Hye said in movie conference, before she became the next president, she emphsized that death sentence should be needed for sex offenders. Since she became the first woman president, I'm expecting more extreme sentence for the sex offenders.

2. Public : Banning smoking in public would create smoking room !
There are more and more smoke-free zones expanding even at the bars and coffee shops in Seoul. Also, Indoor as well as outdoor areas of public buildings will also be designated as smoke-free zones. Smoking will be prohibited in the PC room from this June. Nowadays, many people do not want to be exposured to second smoke, and the government also wants to protect the non-smoker and execute the law right away which they wanted. I totally agree with it, but I think the government needs to see the smokers side too. There are still a lot smokers out there, and the smokers still smoke the cigarette inside and outside the bar. Police officers cannot catch them or bar manager all the time. There will be more conficts of Smokers versus police. However Law is allowing outside smoking section 10meters away, so I'm guessing that cigarette company and government will make the smoking room with perfect air exhauster in the future. I used to smoke a lot, and I know it is sometimes necessary to smoke, so there has got to be a smoking room. It is better to create this type of room than just keep conflicting with smokers.

3. Entertainment : Kim Byung-man will win the 'Grand prize' in SBS entertainments award.
It is time for Byung-man Kim to get the 'Grand prize' in entertainments award. He has been nominated for the grand prize in KBS by performing "Expert" in Gag Concert untill 2009. He moved to SBS starting new show named "Laws of the Jungle", and it is totally different in format and in stories than other shows and it is hot. It is already season 3 now, and people are super excited about it. Among the show, especailly for the reality show, friday is like a hell to get high rate of views. However, Laws of the Jungle beats out other TV programs and they are the first place in rate of view. He did a great job in Gag Concert, but it seemed hard to win the grand prize as a comedian which it was won by MCs. Nevertheless, he did not give up and started a new show not as a comedian but as a MC. I'm a big fan of the show that he is performing, and it seems a right time to give him the prize regards on his effort and challenge. I'm sure he is going to win the grand prize in SBS entertainment award this year.
