North Korea threatens to launch attacks on south
My Korean friends view the North with pity and will liken it to a sick child. There are family ties & if it kicked off a lot of death and suffering for a lot of totally innocent people.
The war hawks usually are very brave with other peoples children especially when it isn't in their country.

"Dare one ask what was on the menu...???"
Dear oh dear - not the usual stereotyping again?
Korean food is good, somewhat spicier than Japanese or N Chinese but I could eat it any time
now Mexican is another dish of refried beans indeed.......

"Did you split the bill Harry?"
I feel that as their guest and unaware of the nuances of Korean culture I didn't want to offend by offering to pay........... that's my excuse and it works in most places........

I concure with Harry, in re Korean cuisine. Plenty of good fare, and a step above Mexican food, to which I am subjected far too frequently, given where I live.
As to being free with others' children, the Norkers seem to like killing southerners just to make a point. Have you forgotten the torpedo and the artillery fire of recent vintage?
Are you sure you have been paying attention?
That said, Harry's point on how many Koreans view their Northern cousins makes sens, and informs how the pols in the South respond in each case.
At some point, it seems to me that we can complete the withdrawal begun about ten years ago, to the point that we have nobody in country. They've had two generations, plus, to get themselves sorted out. At some point, off the teat would seem to be the best policy.
(That goes for a few of our European allies as well, eh? )
