Great pictures!

He was acting like a child, scaring the young kids and old people, and breaking the rules. He told me off and called me ungrateful and rude and said he was just having fun. It was pretty funny. He left but was clearly waiting for me to get off the bridge. I wanted to avoid a confrontation with someone who was clearly unreasonable fortunately his family convinced him that it wasn't worth it.

What a spoiled brat! What the hell did that guy think you should be grateful for? Would he have been of any danger to you had he stood his ground and not listened to his family?

I was pretty shocked, but mostly at his attitude. I think he is just the kind of person who is rarely called out for his poor behaviour. A lot of people (including my wife) were freaking out while crossing that bridge. It's high up and shaky enough as it is.

I don't think it would be possible to fall off the bridge or break it just from shaking it. However, it's more about not scaring people who are already nervous. It's not like he was some 12-year-old kid, but he sure was acting like one.

I like to avoid physical fights (everyone is a loser especially if the police get involved). But, I have no problem telling people off.

Yep. If you lose the fight, you get hurt. If you win the fight, you pay.

In Korea, the outcome can also be criminal records for the person doing self-defence, too. I've heard of people charged for excessive self-defence in 4v1 situations. Don't hit back under any circumstances seems to be the only safe reaction. As a foreigner, I'm extra vulnerable. However, there are signs the law is changing because of a few unreasonable cases, and more video evidence.

Thank you kindly!

This place is amazing. We have bridges like that in the mountains but not many and definitely not this long.
Shaking the bridge is so many people's entertainment as they think it's funny to see other's fear. These people need a good lesson to grow up.

Thanks. Yeah, I don't mind the shaking, but there were families on that bridge. It's not some amusement park ride.
