this isn't surprising... especially since i've seen this a lot in one day

.
what also makes this non-surprising is that south korea is big for lots of it's gaming. lots of popular games are played there (i.e. : Starcraft, WoW (World Of Warcraft))
there was also another incident in south korea where 2 parents were really obsessed with world of warcraft. left their 4 month old baby at home by himself while they played World Of Warcraft at an internet cafe.
he died of SIDS.
its also hitting china too. there was this one guy in china, he killed this other guy for not giving him some video game items.
it wasn't really the parents' fault that the baby died, no one knows what causes SIDS nor does anyone know how to prevent it.

he was obsessed. i mean come on he quit his job...
it's not always an obsession, he could have been sponsored to play video games. people will sponsor you if you're really good at something so the company can get publicity.
