Korean children's games are actually really dangerous. There's one called to-ho 두 호 where you have to throw arrows into a bucket. I had to show my kindergarten class how to throw the arrows without stabbing themselves or other people in the face all while I had to wear a traditional genie outfit that kept falling off because it was made out of silk. It smelt funny because it was my bosses grandfather's and it was covered in stains and burns.

It was actually a pretty easy day comparitively speaking. I got to play games all day. No one urinated on a classmate, rolled down the stairs or hit someone with a metal bar (these have happened many times.) I considered the day well spent.
