Adolescencia móvil en Corea del Sur

Dreams of a Korean Summer: School and a New Cell es un artículo que nos acerca a la vida de Jeong Hye Jin, de quince años, una joven de Corea del Norte. Un detalle curioso es la penetración del móvil en esa sociedad. Por ejemplo, la capacidad de escribir mensajes a ciegas, mientras se atiende a otra cosa:

Hye Jin, who has had a mobile phone since the seventh grade, sends text messages without even glancing at the keypad. In class, she looks straight ahead, holding a pen in her right hand, punching away messages with the left on her phone under her desk. (Some boys have taken this rebelliousness further by carving holes in their desks, through which they look down at their phones.)
