Moon made a stupid and irresponsible mistake at the critical time

by allowing 태영호 to insult Kim again in public.

I am sure that 태영호 told the truth but it wasn't a good time to expose it. A very bad timing !!

To make the things worse,

I think John Bolton made a huge mistake as an "arrogant and ignorant" American.

He had no idea what and who the KIM of north Korea is.

He looked down Kim as a tiny dictator whom U.S. can easily erase out of this world.

He should have treated Kim with utmost respect but he ended up insulting him.

I think, in doing so, he insulted entire Koreans including the South Korea.

He might have over-stepped Trump's plan to baby Kim under the wing of U.S.

If Trump is (will be) able to comfort him enough to get him under U.S. care,

it will be wonderful for all Koreas, while China will lose North Korea.

China will become a disappointed dog like a "닭 쫗던 개, 울타리 올려다 보는".

그들의 ambitious 동북공정의 야심이 한꺼번에 무너지는 것이다.

Obviously, 시진핑 advised Kim "against" meeting Trump on Kim's second Beijing visit.

I will never know for sure. Just my speculation... What the hell do I know anyway?

There aren't very much we can do but the things are getting interesting.

We may be at a critical juncture in our history as to "One Korea or Two Koreas.".

As Trump always says, "We'll See."

If 태영호 did not show off his book, US-SK military exercise might have not

been a matter. Escapees from NK should keep their mouth shot until everything

settle down or things ended up to be a total failure. 

Reporting as it was said as you see & hear on the video;

Is South Korea already under the Kim's rule?

Why in the world in free society one can not speak out one's mind?

I suspect SK under Moon's regime has already turned into authoritarian society in keeping line

with NK.

I think we are "excited more than we should have" on this political maneuvers

without knowing the true intentions of the darn political professionals.

Maybe, we should cut down some of our "hopeless and undeserving" expectations

and pull the hot air out of the balloon that we blew up so big.

Eventually, all this hoorahs and noises may turn into nothing as it has happened in the past.

agreed 100%.

Should stay away talking about on going politics,if  possible.

Seems generally, not constructuve or productive.....

I agree too, Dr Cho & WM.

What do I know about politics?

I am just worried about the SK politics turned to too much left direction.

I live here in the US, but I am concerned about our future status in the US of Korean Americans.

Anyway, expressing and exchanging our hopes and speculations on the unknown future, 

instead of keeping it inside, is not a bad thing at all.

This website and the spaces are just for such occasions.

Some says that one should not talk about religion and politics with strangers.

But it is common to see that the most heated topics are Korean politics when

Korean Americans get together for dinner in neighborhood’s house. Women 

and men sat separately. Men are always into political topics. They try to fix

the whole world. Korea is just a part of it. I think that our website is just like that.

I would like to make sure just one thing; be aware, there is difference of opinion!
