       South Korea is using K-Pop in an attempt to demoralize the
       north. Perhaps K-Pop does have it's uses after-all 90SRF?
       Why does North Korea keep sending waves of balloons full of
       trash towards South Korea? | DW News

       > North Korean balloons containing trash again entered South
       Korea on Wednesday, drifting into the presidential complex
       grounds in Seoul. The presidential complex is located in the
       central Yongsan area of the South Korean capital. Seoul is
       located only 35 miles (56 kilometers) from the demilitarized
       zone (DMZ) between the two Koreas.

       > What do we know so far?
       > "The chemical, biological and radiological (warfare) response
       team has safely collected the trash balloons," the South Korean
       presidential security service told the AFP news agency. "After
       investigation, results have confirmed that there was no danger
       nor contamination of the object," the South Korean security
       authorities continued. South Korean authorities did not say if
       President Yoon Suk Yeol was present at the compound when the
       trash balloons landed.  Earlier South Korean presidents had
       their office at the Blue House in the historic Jongno district,
       but Yoon instead has moved to work on official duties at the
       Yongsan complex. The South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff earlier
       on Wednesday reported that the balloons from North Korea were
       north of Seoul and warned citizens to be vigilant.

       > Tenth round of North Korean trash balloons enter South since
       late May
       >
       > The latest trash balloons come after South Korea ramped up its
       broadcasts of propaganda and pop music at the DMZ, targeting the
       North. The North Korean government was also angered by recent
       firing drills conducted by South Korea near their shared border
       area. It's the tenth round of North Korean balloons drifting
       towards the South since late May. The balloons from North Korea
       were initially a response to leaflets coming from South Korea,
       which carried material criticizing the North Korean government
       and the ruling Kim family. The North and South are still
       technically in a state of war, as the Korean War ended in 1953
       ended in an armistice rather than a peace treaty.

       One could be a capitalist without necessarily being western.
       Capitalism without westernization would not be as harmful to the
       planet and life as being capitalistic and western does...

       I have never denied that Kpop is influential. I merely despise
       it aesthetically (and by extension despise fans of it). The best
       approach the North could take if it cannot come up with its own
       superior music is to import superior music from elsewhere.
       Having something much better to compare Kpop against is the
       easiest way to learn to despise it.

       How much worse can relations between North and South Korea get?

       the highly militarized border have already been shut down for
       years.

       worsening prospects for re-unification, with Pyongyang also
       increasing its fortifications on the border.
