I remember it a bit differently -- wasn't it people smuggling media into NK? But yea, I think we're talking about the same thing.
Nope. Different doco.

*Ruddock Signal*

South Korea is in the process of getting a THAAD system, and apparently it only covers 120 degrees so the submarine ballistic test launches pose a problem. Are there limitations to field of coverage beyond the AESA issues?

For South Korea, maybe. But not for the U.S.

We've been remiss.

Is there any chance that any current US anti-icbm tech works outside of possible staged tests, even assuming that the opposition doesn't have decoys/ mirvs?

Simple answer, yes
Thanks, I certainly hoped so. Any chance we shoot down a missile test just to mess with the Norks?

Got caught stealing some sort of propaganda sign from a building, sentenced to like 30 years hard labor, spent 18 months there but slipped into a coma for most of it. The Korean Gov't blamed the hard labor or something? Others thing they poisoned him? They sent him home in a coma, and now died.

Something like that.
