Broadband's killer application <20> the one activity that dwarfs all others <20>
|
||
is online gaming, which 80 percent of South Koreans under 25 play, according
|
||
to one recent study. Critics say the burgeoning industry is creating
|
||
millions of zombified addicts who are turning on and tuning into computer
|
||
games, and dropping out of school and traditional group activities, becoming
|
||
uncommunicative and even violent because of the electronic games they play.
|
||
|
||
"Game players don't have normal social relationships anymore," said Kim Hyun
|
||
Soo, a 36-year-old psychiatrist who is chairman of the Net Addiction
|
||
Treatment Center, one of many groups that have sprung up to cope with
|
||
Internet game addiction. "Young people are losing the ability to relate to
|
||
others, except through games. People who become addicted are prone to
|
||
violence, even when they are not playing.
