The way Korea vilifies recreational drug use is completely absurd and likely led to this.
I love traveling in Korea (and Japan), but have a hard time convincing myself to go back to a place with such fundamentally unethical policies in place.

What are you, Portuguese?
The only drug specifically mentioned in the article is cannabis lol. As such, no not Portuguese, but I am from somewhere much more progressive than Portugal when it comes to cannabis regulations. Can a random tourist even go buy a joint legally from a store in Portugal yet? If any adult can't go buy it from a store legally without any further justification, then it isn't actually legal.
Only two options: Canada or Uruguay
Edit: probably should have checked the instance lol
I’m in Michigan in the US. We are not under prohibition anymore
Selling isn't legal in Portugal but all (nondistribution) drug use has been decriminalized
Decriminalization has serious issues for safe medicines like cannabis, but I prefer it to legalization for opiates personally
I also prefer the actual legalization of all drugs. Decriminalization is barely better than prohibition with inconsistent purity and implicit support of organized crime.
Edit: Oh sorry, I misread. I'm curious as to why you support decriminalization but not legalization. Also, aren't many forms of opiates already legal when sourced correctly? Like for medical applications and stuff?
Its insane. What a waste man
Over weed? Korean culture is fucked.
The way the authorities went ham on “investigating” his case and leaking stuff to the media means someone powerful is trying to cover up something from public scrutiny and diverting public attention.
