      They are accused of smuggling synthetic marijuana - known by the street names K2 and Spice - into the country through the US military’s postal service.

      That might be a part of it

      2.7 oz is a stupid amount of K2 (synthetic cannabis).

      It’s already a ton of natural cannabis. If you cup your hands together, that is about one ounce of weed which will keep you fucked up for a while. Now imagine 2.7 times that, and since it’s synthetic cannabis it’s way stronger.

      Edit: To be clear I don’t think weed should be illegal, and South Korea has draconic drug laws. I use it myself, which is how I know that 2.7 oz is a lot of weed.
