That's pretty funny. My inlaws are Korean. My mother in law's boss gave her about 6 Koi a couple years ago thinking she would like them. She didn't want to insult him so she accepted. It's the face thing... They bought a 30g acrylic with a little filter and put them in. she thought that if kept in a small tank they would stay the size of large golffish. They moved out by us and in helping them pack I saw the beasts. 
I recently cycled out a 72 bowfront and was getting ready to sell it. I felt bad for the Koi and it's now the new home of 6 7 to 10" Koi. I also tossed in some old lights and hot magnum with a biowheel. I may also throw in a Rainbow Lifeguard fluidized bed 600 once I have the chance to clean it up. This was a better cause.
Karma to you.
