THE WEEK Mar 20: Grand Theft Auto Beijing

Grand Theft Auto Beijing
During the Two sessions earlier this month an incident occurred on the West Second Ring road. A small vehicle was stopped by police, but instead of adhering to the law the driver sped off. He was finally detained by the special police decked out in tactical SWAT gear. Turns out the 26 year-old driver was driving illegally in the capital. Netizens have been comparing this to the hit video game Grand Theft Auto.

Miss Korea
Well, the Miss Universe pageant is starting up again and each country is searching for their Miss. South Korea seems to be having a more difficult time due to the country’s penchant for plastic surgery, all of the Miss Korea candidates have a similar look.

Super Heroes
Turns out that sometimes onscreen super heroes might be real life super heroes. Teaming up with Microsoft and the collaborative project, Iron Man actor Robert Downey Jr. got into character to present a young boy with a bionic arm. Seven-year-old Alex grew up missing a limb and having an afternoon with Tony Stark cheered the young man right up. Hopefully he’ll learn how to use his arm properly.
