Jian Seo, left, and David TizzardAs I scrolled through my social media this week, a single hashtag kept appearing: #SorryJung-in. The nation was experiencing a collective outpouring of palpable grief as it came to terms with the horrifying death of a young child not yet two-years old.
Celebrities and influential public figures had joined the cause, raising their voices, and making known their sadness.
Though I contemplated placing the same hashtag on my own pages, I couldn t bring myself to do it. A sense of guilt overcame me: What would these words really achieve? What would carrying out a public display of sympathy really do?
