Kim Jo Yong, the North Korean leader’s sister, has called South Koreans sending balloon-borne leaflets over the border “scum.” She hinted that the North might resume sending trash-filled balloons to the South.

Watch the south Koreans laser down those balloons like it’s the star wars before they even reach the border.

  So where were these lasers for the previous 600 balloons that were sent to SK?

I know a place where her trash balloons would be more than welcome: old.reddit.com/r/kimyojong/?rdt=47038

Genuinely curious, why did the south send the balloon in the first place? The article only mentioned that it was led by activists and North Korean defectors.

If that was an oversight from the south, that looks really bad IMHO. Look how we treat balloons sent by China that is immediately shot down. It could very well hide a weapon/surveillance instead of leaflet and hence the raising tension.
