BROADCASTING KPOP MUSIC AND THE LATEST NEWS BROADCAST BY VOICE OF FREEDOM ACROSS THE DMZ WAS ENOUGH TO LET THE LEFTIST COMMUNIST COUNTRY DPRK OF THE KIM TO COME TO TERMS THAT IT CAN’T CONTROL THE LISTENING EARS OF ITS CONTROLLED PEOPLE THUS THE DPRK CALLED FOR RECONCILIATION AND AN APOLOGY FOR PLANTING MINES THAT MAIMED TWO SOLDIERS NOT TO MENTION THE DEATHS OF 46 ROK SAILORS DYING AFTER A TORPEDO STRIKE BY THE DPRK IN 2010 IT WOULD SEEM

For weeks tensions between the neighbouring countries had been simmering after the South accused the North of planting landmines on its border which maimed two of its soldiers.
Pyongyang refused to take responsibility prompting Seoul to go on the offensive.
While it showed some of its military might, its main tactic - the one which appears to have angered the North the most - was to blast (among many things) K-pop across the border.
Using these loud speakers might seem strange to the rest of the world but South Korea knows its “closely related” neighbour well.
According to Dr Justin Hastings from the University of Sydney, if there is one thing the North Koreans hate, it’s information, in any form, from the outside world.
The International Relations and Comparative Politics lecturer told news.com.au North Korea was more afraid its citizens, and more importantly its soldiers, being tempted by not only the South but the West.
“It’s not the war games,” he said. “The one thing North Koreans really hate is, and this surprised me initially, is basically tactics that involve sending information about the outside world into North Korea.
“The loud speakers are good example of that. It’s not that they kill anyone, it’s that they are sending messages to North Korean soldiers in a way that really annoys the North Koreans. The balloons with messages over the border is another tactic the North Koreans really hate.
“And bibles coming in from China is also another thing. Those are the things the North Koreans really strongly dislike.”

Despite being one of the biggest girl bands in Asia, Korean pop group 2NE1 doesn’t seem to have any fans in North Korea. In fact their peachy pop tunes are considered evil propoganda by the North Korean government. Pic: Koichi Kamoshida/Getty Images. Source: Supplied
