Korean entertainer, Shin Jung Hwan, was sentenced to eight months in jail last week for gambling. Korean law prohibits the country’s citizens from gambling in casinos – in the country or overseas. However, Shin travelled to Cebu in order to gamble, and that’s when his luck ran out. First of all, he lost all his money and therefore had to borrow from a casino lender. He then failed to return to South Korea to tape his shows and it was discovered that he was stuck in Cebu because he couldn’t pay his gambling debts and his passport had been used as collateral. He finally managed to leave Cebu but stayed away from Korea for five months, hiding out in Macau, Hong Kong, Nepal and Japan. When he did finally decide to enter Korea, he was immediately arrested at the airport and indicted for gambling before being sentenced last week. And let’s not forget Shin’s leg injury, which has left him using crutches. This is one unlucky gambler!!

A rabbi is sitting on an airplane next to a Korean guy. After they have been flying together in silence for a while, the rabbi leans over and says, “You know, I’ve never forgiven you Chinese for what you did at Pearl Harbor.”
The Korean looks shocked and replies, “What the hell are you talking about?!?!? It was the Japanese the bombed Pearl Harbor, not the Chinese. And besides, I’m not Chinese or Japanese, I’m Korean!”
The rabbi says: ”Korean, Japanese, Chinese, what’s the difference?”
A little while later, the Korean man says, “You know, I’ve never forgiven you Jews for sinking the Titanic.” The rabbi looks confused and mad and says, “What are you talking about? The Jews didn’t have anything to do with that! An iceberg sank the Titanic!”
The Korean guy replies, “Iceberg, Goldberg, Greenberg, what’s the difference?”
