Today the BBC reported that the S. Korean ship that sank in march was most likely (it has been agreed on) sunk by a N. Korean torpedo. The South and the UN are now trying to come up with a reasonable response. They cannot (and will not) let this attack go un-noticed. However, the South will do everything it can to prevent a war because it will not only cripple their economy, but most likely they will suffer major damage to the capitol Seoul, and my future home.
As of now my plans have not changed. I do not intend to change them unless the state department or my study abroad advisors (GlobalLinks) advises me not to go. The best thing, I think, for me to do is carry on as planned. I know that the US government has a plan in place to get US citizens out of S. Korea in the (unlikely) event of a N. Korean attack. I'm not too worried, although a little bit concerned.
For now, click the title of this post (Oh Shit...) to read the BBC article.
