Wow that's really too bad! I was listening to a podcast with a North Korean defector who moved to the states from South Korea, and one thing she criticized was the South Korea's growing complacency with the north and with communism. She didn't really explain it in terms I could understand (probably because of her background, she went to a lot of extreme examples).

But I guess I was under the impression that the South Korean economy was doing well enough that it would keep them from drifting in that direction - but I didn't really know how it worked or even that it was that bad. Wow! That is really too bad.
