A cloudy sunday morning in seoul, I was waiting my wife's coming in the parking lot to go GwangHwaMun - the center of seoul where once King of chosun dynasty lived.
I encountered high school boy with a backpack - it's very easy to find high school students who attend to private educational institute on sunday in seoul.
But instead of going to study, he roamed around the garden and with a speed of light, he picked up something and slipped it into pocket.
I taught high school students on a sunday-school for years and I felt in my bones it's something!!!
Yes!!!
It was a lighter.
The lighter gets to work every morning leaving his stone house in the garden.
I am 100% sure his parents does not recognize the fact that his cute child smokes.
In south Korea it is a open secret most of teenagers smoke and ironically many parents believe their children does not smoke.
South Korean high school students study 15~18 hours a day to pass the college entrance exam !!!!!
He definitely needs a cigarette to ease stress. :-O_~
But if the image of every secure cameras and black box camera for vehicles are recorded in the cloud - like google or apple's cloud system, what will happen?
Toady's technology is making it possible to know where you are and what you are doing in real-time.
In this soon coming lifelog era, I am sure these poor korean high school students can not smoke illegally any more.
But can people be happy? It's a another story.
Sometimes people learns and grows through mistakes.
Next society maybe compels us a new utopia where there is no human decision.

Perhaps these butts are the evidence of his agony.
Look at the suspect who keeps one hand in his pocket clutching lighter.
Let's think about today's information technology.
We are living in the era of Life-log where our daily lives are recorded.
In your smartphone app store, you can easily find these lifelog app. It records your daily life and some app helps you to exercise more.
But if the image of every secure cameras and black box camera for vehicles are recorded in the cloud - like google or apple's cloud system, what will happen?

I am not saying smoking is nothing to teenagers.
The era of lifelog mean crime zero society theoretically.
But they must choose. At least human can choose whether it is good or not.
And the decision process makes human mature.
