I bet that the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea is now experiencing an increase in immigrants or refugees because of the havoc in the Rep. of Korea.
It’s not because they (possibly )knew that they necessarily wanted it to happen though ?
Just that if they ever knew about something so secret, then they probably didn’t say “no”, and more something like “it’s your responsibility” instead ?
I can’t see something like that being carried out without a green light from the US. So, at the very least they were willing to look away. Yoon is precisely the kind of dictator the US would want to install, he’s rabidly anti China and pro Japan. Biden admin isn’t exactly known for their competence or subtlety. It does seem like they misjudged public backlash here.
Exactly, and thus the real question is why the US would want to turn Korea back into a military dictatorship.
Could be the USonians trying to goad China &/ North Korea into full blown war
It’s hard to imagine that either would take the bait. The most likely outcome would be that occupied Korea implodes internally.

As far as I know it’s notoriously difficult to cross north. I guess people could go to China and then go north from there though.
