North Korea Fires Missile That Lands in Sea Between Korea and Japan



As time passes NK gets more & more daring & provocative. Is it just me, or is this situation getting quite worrisome ?



Ninth time this year NK tested a missile. Are they just blowing off steam or are they truly preparing to strike allies ?

They mention the missile flew 280 miles from Wonsan. I'm no military expert, but according to Google Maps, Seoul is only 112 Miles away from Wonsan.

It would appear the 10'000'000 people living in Seoul are in range of these missiles. Kim Jong-Un is neither stable nor sane. I wonder how people living in the northern region of SK feel ?
