    not the first time it happened

    This isn't the first time this happened there.. a 24 year old man died 3 years ago after 86 hours of online playing..

    http://www.redherring.com/Article.as...netAndServices

    The article tells of the other man who died 3 years ago too... and also mentions that the Korean government is aware of the problem and funds organizations like the Centre for Internet Addiction Prevention and Counseling to help online gamers kick the habit.
