SK Resumes Propaganda After Trash Balloons
South Korea has reactivated powerful loudspeakers along its heavily fortified border, blaring K-pop music and critical messages into North Korea, in direct retaliation for Pyongyang's recent campaign of sending hundreds of trash-filled balloons. This provocative move, reversing a 2018 de-escalation agreement, has prompted North Korea to warn of a "new response" and significantly escalates regional tensions, raising concerns about potential military clashes.
