Article: "In case I'm a loner again"... first day of school, female junior high school student commits suicide

A 14 year old female junior high school student was discovered at the entrance of her villa bleeding by a neighbor after jumping off of the billa's 3rd floor roof. She was pronounced dead at the hospital. She had left a will saying, "I'm sorry. I didn't want to be a loner again."
1. [+286, -12] Half of the classes students are taking now won't be used once they're adults so take those out and add classes that teach them about character development. It doesn't matter if I raise my kid to be a good person because other kids will just step all over him. Exactly how many more students need to die for people to take notice how big of a problem this is? School is the root of society.
2. [+120, -19] She should've thought it over just one more time... I understand how distressed she must've been in that moment but once time passes and you look back on it, it becomes something not even worth worrying about. It's upsetting that we lost a life like that..
3. [+38, -3] People seriously need to teach their kids how to be proper human beings... -_- And expel the students who are rotten from the roots. Don't let any school take them in. Trash should be sent to the incineration plants, not schools.

Article: "I hate the college entrance requirements" Male high school student in Daegu jumps to his death from his apartment
Source: Newsis via Nate
A 16 year old male high school student jumped off of the 15th floor of his apartment and was pronounced dead at the scene. In his pocket was a piece of paper that said, "I hate the college entrance examination system. I'm sorry to my family and friends."
CCTV showed him getting on and off the elevator several times before finally making the decision to go through with it.
1. [+232, -32] People may say that all of this pain becomes nothing once you endure it and grow up... but the system makes such a huge impact on your life. I hope that he's able to let it all go and rest peacefully.
2. [+121, -6] College entrance exams, raising your specs, getting a job, marriage, work, having kids, raising kids, worrying about retirement... The average Korean life is so boxed in and nobody has the bravery to come out of it and fly away... We all live for that one speck of hope.
3. [+16, -21] Jumping to his death was that student's decision... But it was us adults who sent him up that elevator.
4. [+14, -24] People that can't handle it should just leave. They'll never adjust to society anyway.
5. [+12, -1] Even with such news... All of the high schools in the city of Daegu are demanding that their students stay after school until 11 p.m. for forced free study.
