lol ah please.. north korea ._.

they have a defence buget like the netherlands OR belgium. not combined ^^ it poses the biggest threat to the north koreans themself. in the case of an war the modern airforce of southkorea and usa would eradicate them and destroy whats left of their poor third world economy. any try to attack southkorea with their primitive outdated army would be sudden death

ya, I think it's in response to North Korea testing missiles. Japan is saying "and you wanna try shooting your crappy missiles at us?"
