Republic of Korea media has been talking to South Korean workers kicked out of the Kaesŏng Industrial Region (KIR).  Some ROK workers say there is an increase in military vehicles surrounding KIR. The following are quotes that show the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea is serious about war this time, and that South Korean capitalist corporations can’t survive without the cheap North Korean labor.

“[DPRK] Workers who normally wear civilian clothes wore military uniforms and patrols were strengthened.”

“The demeanor of North Korean workers appears to have changed overnight. They were colder than usual and didn’t smile.”

“Inter-Korean relations are a problem, but we’re very concerned that we [ROKies] could lose our business.”

“If parts or food fail to reach the North [KIR] for two to three days, the assembly lines will stop running and workers will starve.”
