Since the last week of March, all the TV programs in Korea has been stoppecd. The reason why is that a huge, mysterious event happened in Korea. “… sinking of a South Korean warship in water…” in March 26. Before South Korea government asked who did it, North Korea governments strongly denied. ““They are using the media to attribute it to us,” the North’s state-run news agency, K.C.N.A.,” Although some expert illustrates that the ship sunk by “hitting a left over from the cold war.” However, if South Korea government concludes that the action was by North korea, Government will not be a unshakable action anymore. They will fight against North Korea. President “will come under fire for the hole in the country’s defense,analyst say.” On top of that, all the action must be done very carefully because the South Korea governments “is scheduled to host to the Group of 20 summit meeting of leaders…in November.” And the other factor is that “… mayoral and gubernatorial elections scheduled for June.” So for Government, they have to really thoughtful about their decision because their choice can all be either directly or indirectly influence to 2 main events. The disastrous event happened in Cheonan, off Baengyeong island, brought all attention and tension to both 2 splited Koreas.
