On December 14th, a tragedy occurred at an elementary school in Newton, Connecticut where 28 people died, including 20 children. This wasn't the only incident that occurred at a school as halfway across the globe in China, a man brought a knife to a primary school and stabbed 22 children and 1 adult. The entire world was shocked at the news of these horrific incidents, and celebrities in Korea spoke up against the horrible news.
