1. [+754, -24] Crazies

2. [+736, -22] Sigh, please be worrying about looking after your grandparents, you pathetic people

3. [+696, -15] Anyone who has a record of being at an Itaewon bar on the 30th and 31st need to take care of all medical expenses out of their own pocket

4. [+13, -3] I wonder if these fools even know what the meaning of Halloween is

5. [+12, -0] They seem so brainless...

6. [+12, -1] Foreigners must think we're ridiculous. Halloween in the US is celebrated by home parties and handing out candies to children. In our country, it's a time for people to act like sex crazed animals in ghost costumes. Sigh.

1. [+386, -19] Please remember the medical staff and parents who are suffering in all of this!! Looks like November's going to be another tough month for us. Why can't people just stay home, tsk tsk.

2. [+312, -16] The entire world is suffering and our government is begging people to follow safety guidelines, why would you go out in the streets at a time like this? I just don't understand.

3. [+286, -17] Contact trace all new cases and everyone who was in Itaewon need to pay for their own medical expenses

4. [+18, -5] I don't get it... Halloween used to be a holiday only celebrated by foreign students in our country. Since when did it become a nation-wide celebration like this? Why are people being like this? 

5. [+16, -1] Remember during Chuseok when people were spamming that everyone should stay home and not visit family in case we infect our parents? Now you're out there partying and celebrating another country's culture? So hypocritical.

1. [+508, -4] This is so frustrating... I have no words...

2. [+260, -6] Anyone who's in Itaewon right now has nothing in their brain ㅋㅋ

3. [+175, -7] Make them all pay for their medical expenses

4. [+47, -4] Make them pay for their own medical expenses. It's because all of it's paid for that they think they can act like this.

5. [+35, -1] I had hoped that people would stay home for Chuseok... but didn't blame anyone if they did choose to celebrate it since it is an important holiday in our country. But Halloween?;;; I guess we're going to have a mess on our hands with Christmas soon too. Can we please hold back on things that we can hold back on?
