So are you not going to take retaliatory measures?

So what if you bring it up? You guys aren't going to do anything anyway ㅋㅋㅋㅋ It feels like even with a strong response like back in Park Geun-hye's days, you wouldn't even be able to get an expression of regret from North Korea? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
들고나오면 뭐함? 니네 아무것도안할거잖아 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ박근혜 떄처럼 강경대응해서 북한 유감도 못받아낼거같은데?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

— @에이-u7q1j · 👍 6 · on South Korea military concludes North Korea planted…There's nothing good about getting on North Korea's bad side, so why keep provoking them? Everyone already knows the landmines were planted by the previous administration anyway, so cut it out.
북한한테 밉보여서 좋은게 하나도 없는데 왜 자꾸 도발하지 지뢰도 이미 전 정부가 심어놓은거라고 다들 알고있는데 적당히해라
— @meimei-j6l · 👍 6 · on [오늘 이 뉴스] "북한군이 설치한 지뢰 때문".. '최종 판단' 끝났다는 합참…Despite all this, Lee Jae-myung has no reaction towards North Korea..
이런데도 이재명은 북한에대해 반응도없고 ..
— @프리플라워하우스 · 👍 5 · on South Korea military concludes North Korea planted…The issue isn't the North Korean landmines... we need to reveal when North Korea laid those landmines~
북한 지뢰라는 게 문제가 아니고.. 북한이 그 지뢰를 언제 매설했느냐 그 시점을 밝혀야 한다~
— @keeyang-l6x · 👍 5 · on [오늘 이 뉴스] "북한군이 설치한 지뢰 때문".. '최종 판단' 끝났다는 합참…Even if North Korea's launch of an unidentified projectile is confirmed and 5 million people in Korea are killed by a nuclear bomb, people would first argue about whether the unidentified projectile is actually a missile, and whether it is right or wrong for South Korea to officially acknowledge that North Korea has nuclear weapons. After debating these things for about 6 months, it would probably be confirmed that 5 million South Koreans died due to North Korean nukes.
북한에서 미확인 발사체 쏜게 확인되고 한국에서 핵폭탄으로 사람한 오백만명 죽어도, 일단 북한 미확인 발사체가 미사일이 맞느냐부터, 북한이 핵을 가지걸 한국이 공식적으로 인정하는게 옳냐 아니냐. 이런거 다투고 한 6개월 후에 북핵으로 한국인 500만명 죽은거 확정 될듯.
— @bbadols · 👍 5 · on [긴급 브리핑] 軍 "DMZ 폭발 지뢰 北 매설로 최종 판단... 오늘 지뢰 제거 작전 실시"…Don't go asking for apologies like this~ If you just keep getting hit like this, they'll keep doing it... You need to retaliate in the exact same way.
사과를 요구 이런거 하지마라~ 그냥 매번 당하면 계속 할꺼란 말이지... 똑같이 보복해줘야 한다.
— @woojeryong · 👍 4 · on "북한, 사과하고 지뢰 제거해야"‥후속 제재도 검토 (2026.10.05/뉴스데스크/MBC)12 months ago? Are they going to blame Yoon Suk-yeol now? Lol. It's amazing now..
12개월 이전? 이제는 윤석열 탓을 하겠다는건가? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 놀랍네 이젠..
— @Kyle-xu4cc · 👍 3 · on Military concludes landmine that exploded in DMZ was…North Korean troops planted it a year ago. What has the Ministry of National Defense been doing all this time? Thoroughly investigate those responsible.
1년 전에 북한군 매설 그 동안 국방부 무엇을 했습니까 관련자들을 철저히 수사하라
— @sdff-wer · 👍 2 · on Military concludes landmine that exploded in DMZ was…Staying still for a whole year is also legendary.
1년 동안 가만히 있는것도 레전드네
— @ArchAngel_drm · 👍 2 · on South Korea military concludes North Korea planted…As expected, lawmaker Han Dong-hoon, who puts the people and national interest first, was right.
역시 국민과 국익을 먼저 생각하는 한동훈 의원이 옳았다,,
— @F22스탤스 · 👍 2 · on [긴급 브리핑] 軍 "DMZ 폭발 지뢰 北 매설로 최종 판단... 오늘 지뢰 제거 작전 실시"…We really need to stay on high alert. If this keeps up, they're going to make a major provocation. We must protect the lives of our soldiers; reacting after someone dies is useless.
진짜 긴장 빠짝 하고 있어야 한다 이러다 큰 도발 한번한다 우리 장병들 목숨 지켜야한다 죽고나서 대처는 필요 없다
— @유하명 · 👍 2 · on 국방부 "진심 어린 사과와 설치 지뢰 즉시 제거 강력 촉구" [현장영상+] / YTNWhat on earth was the Ministry of Defense doing while they crossed over about 40 times? Isn't this wrong from the start?
40여 차례 넘어 올 동안 국방부는 뭐했냐? 이거부터 잘못된거 아닌가?
— @Marktoob1 · 👍 1 · on "북한, 사과하고 지뢰 제거해야"‥후속 제재도 검토 (2026.10.05/뉴스데스크/MBC)Old folks are running around shouting and yelling to go to war, because they aren't the ones going to the battlefield.
노친네들이 날뛰묘 전쟁해라 하고 고래고래 소리를 지르네, 지들은 전쟁터 갈일 없다 이거지
— @나리나리나리나리 · 👍 1 · on "북한, 사과하고 지뢰 제거해야"‥후속 제재도 검토 (2026.10.05/뉴스데스크/MBC)Are North Korea the kind of people to apologize just because you tell them to?
북한이 사과하라고 사과할 애들이냐?
— @이시은-v3d · 👍 1 · on JCS Concludes North Korean Landmine Explosion and Demands…Honestly, if this incident had happened during Yoon Suk-yeol's administration, how would the Democratic Party have reacted..... Wouldn't they have raised absolute hell, claiming the measures were inadequate and demanding a special counsel?
솔직히 윤석열 정부때 이 사건 터졌으면 민주당 어땠을까.....조치 미흡하다며 특검 하자고 생난리 쳤을 것 아냐?
