SOME KOREANS LESS Unsure
Some, nevertheless, are less agitated.
Madam Jang Seok-geum, an 87-year-old Korean War veteran who lived through the Korean War from 1950 to 1953, said she is concerned for the younger generation but not the dangers coming from North Korea.
When the Korean War started, I was 13 years older. I’ve lived around my entire life and have grown up. The babies are sad. It feels like there might be a conflict again”, she said.
However, the majority of South Koreans do n’t seem to believe that the Korean Peninsula will become even more conflicted by the current escalations.  ,
Instead, they are seen as just some of some tit- for- scar actions between the two Koreas, which remain physically at war.
People are no longer as concerned about the tensions between the two sides as they were before, according to Mr. Cho Chang- hee, who was born in Daedong and then lives in Seoul.
” Up then, we had limited vehicles and arms, which made us worried and troubled. Now, our nation has advanced significantly in terms of weapons development, not to mention economically”, he/she said.
” Also, our relationships with friendly countries are much stronger than previously. So, from our view, there is not much to worry about. Also if a conflict breaks out.
