#4 Sounds like it is time for the South Koreans to spend a large chunk of money on more Patriot batteries, some AEGIS systems, and a lot of Standard Mark 3 missiles. That or accept being pounded on by the Nork missile inventory.

#5 My brother lives in Seoul. Says they pretty much accept that if the missiles start firing they are all screwed. Can't worry what can't be changed, so they go about their day-to-day lives.

#6 But the problem with that attitude, is that with the new Patriot PAC3 and the AEGIS/Standard Mark 3 combo, the Nork crap can be stopped before it hits Seoul. The Patriot PAC3 can hit SCUDs and enhanced SCUDs easily, and the AEGIS combo can take out true ICBMs, let alone IRBMs. And all of the Nork missiles are simple enhancements of the standard Soviet/ChiCom SCUD.
