Korean assaulted while singing
A Korean may have failed to sing from the heart or he may have overdone his singing, but his performance inside a karaoke bar in a Fina Sisu hotel definitely irked another customer Tuesday midnight.
Police said 44-year-old Kwon Woo Kim was attacked by another Korean while the victim was singing inside the Reno Super Club at the Riviera Hotel in Fina Sisu.
