In Seoul, South Korea, a 5- year-old South Korean girl was killed when one man was trying to suicide himself by falling from his 11th floor from his apartments and landed on top of her. This was Wednesday night in Busan, a port city in the southern part of the country. The man was 38 years old and crushed the little girl's body. The man died right away. He was being treated for depression, but he couldn't take it anymore. The little girl was then taken to the hospital. She died from a skull fracture. Well, for South Korea, suicide is not something new...South Korea has one of the highest suicide rates among economically advanced countries. This is because of socio-economic pressures, an aging population, and the growing of one-person households.
I really am sorry for the man that committed suicide because maybe he just couldn't find any way to get it over with. I am much more sorry for the girl that didn't have to do with anything, yet, she had to pay the price...This is another way of showing us that even if we don't pay a little attention to one thing, that can affect us.
