A 19-year-old drunken woman has been booked for beating a South Korean police officer who tried to stop her fight with a restaurant owner over her smoking last week.
Smoking is banned in South Korean restaurants, but the woman ignored a request to stop her bad behaviour and wrangled with the restaurant owner in northern Seoul, according to online articles. She also kicked and punched a policeman who was called out to stop the fight.
The woman will stand trial on charges of obstruction of justice for a police officer. The scene triggered an online outcry.
