시민들 "우려...차분하지만 단호한 대응 필요" South Koreans have lived for decades with the threat of an attack by North Korea.They see the news about missile launches and, more recently, nuclear tests.There are civilian drills in case of an emergency, and people don't usually worry much.But the latest nuclear test, on an otherwise peaceful Sunday,... is seeing a different sort of response in South Korea.Lee Ji-won has more. Having endured numerous provocations from North Korea since the country was divided over 6-decades ago, the South Korean public had previously been relatively calm and seemingly numb to Pyongyang's nuclear and missile threats. But this time, there were more than just indifferent responses from regular South Koreans. (Kr) "I'm quite concerned. I saw Pyongyang's missiles being fired and tested on TV, and I don't want to have to suffer from wars any more."(Kr) "North Korea is going further,... and is now saying that it has missiles that can reach not just Seoul, but the U.S. as well. And with the tension between Washington and Pyongyang aggravating, I think this is a grave situation."(Kr) "I think the 6th nuclear test means the weapon has already been fully developed. It's already come too far."(Kr) "I'm actually quite numb to this situation, but the South Korean government's response was different this time. The president ordered the most powerful punishment, so I think the situation is a little different this time around." But despite North Korea's growing nuclear weapons capability and the heightened tensions on the Korean peninsula,... many were still not too concerned.Visit ‘Arirang News’ Official PagesFacebook(NEWS): http://www.facebook.com/newsarirang Homepage: http://www.arirang.com Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/arirangtv Twitter: http://twitter.com/arirangworld Instagram: http://instagram.com/arirangworld
