Perhaps it’s ignorance to North Korea.  The New York Times writes about how South Korea has become nonchalant about North Korea’s latest nuclear and missile testing.  If you’ve ever visited Seoul, it’s a city drenched in neon lights and pop culture.   The population doesn’t seem to concerned that a few hundred miles away, there’s a nuclear threat and missiles are being launched.  It’s one thing to reside in the U.S. because it’s always been protected by the oceans, but the DMZ won’t protect the citizens of South Korea from Kim Jong-Il’s craziness.  Is it generational that the younger folks who are obsessed with the Wonder Girls just simply don’t care?  Or is it that the South Koreans feel that Kim Jong-Il is crying wolf again?  Go to the NYTimes.com for more>
