Tis the season for children's holiday cards and this year I've got some really winners. Allow me to transpose in case you can't read their writing on the cards:
(For reference these are grade 6 boys who sit next to each other, but they've copied the style of a penpal letter in their textbook so it sounds a bit strange.)
Dear Mr. Oh Kyun,
Hi, my name is Gangmin Lee. When I first saw you, I thought you were just an ordinary person with weird hair. But when the time passed, I realized that you were creatively cruel. When I say creatively cruel, I mean you know many ways to kill.
I hope we could meet sometime.
Your friend,
Gangmin Lee
Now in case you're wondering what warranted Gangmin's high praise, here is Oh Kyun's letter to him:
Dear gang min,
Hi. My name is Oh kyun Kweon. I live in Daegu. I'm thirteen years old. I have a knife (I kill you). I like playing computer games. Want to know about you. Please back to me.
goodbye.
Alas, Oh Kyun shared only one of the many ways he knows how to kill, but I do believe Gangmin that there are more.
