If I Had ₩100 For Every Kid Who Told Me Their Computer Was Broken When They Don't Do Their Homework, I'd Be A Millionaire

That sounds like a Morrissey song title.

Why would a broken computer prevent them from finishing homework anyway? Can't they do it with paper and pencil?

Still, I pity those kids. A full day of school (with homework) and then more classes at the Hagwon, until 9 or 10 at night? When do they have time for your homework?

Some of their homework is online. The specific case that triggered this was a girl who missed the previous class and said she couldn't take the test because she didn't get the vocab sheet. I reminded her that is was available online, at which point she pulled out the above excuse.

Rest assured though, I do feel sympathy for them. They seem to find time to play Starcraft and talk on their phones incessantly though.
