I was reading through a few different topics that had significant developments in 2019 but, naturally, due to the pandemic they became pigeon holed in memory. So what were big news events of 2019 that we either forgot about or haven't gotten back to?

I can go first. [CW, content not mentioned but is related to the scandal: sexual assault, rape, gang rape] Reminds that Burning Sun nightclub scandal in South Korea that was unfolding in 2019? Looks like since that time, all participants have served and are out of jail, which is disgusting how short of a time they got. Police were involved but none were significantly prosecuted.

      Only thing I remember from 2019 is that after mostly isolating from people for over a year due to a friend's death, I made the decision to be more social again. Went to a friend's wedding. Started doing a lot of my old social activities. World shut down. Lmao.
