    As a South Korean citizen, I totally agree with deploying the THAAD in south korea.
    Most of the South korean citizens think that the friendship between US & SK is very precious.

      My answer is no. War happened, protesting alway happened, people argue never ends, fighting internet never change. Hating on someone, is the same thing on hating country. Its a cycle, war will never end.

    It appears that these villagers care more about their own peace and quiet then they do the protection of their country. These villagers seem very selfish and care little about their fellow citizens. Those batteries are deployed to intercept incoming missiles heading towards them. I just don't see the point in protesting something that's there to help you. These villagers seem to think that this is being done to militarize their country and draw them into a war. News flash, the US and South Korean governments aren't creating this crisis, it's the North Korean Regime's insistence on creating nuclear weapons. North Korea is creating this instability and fear.

      I don't see your logic. The missiles were put there to help deter or defend an attack by North Korea. The missiles are there for the sake of the country's safety and well being. If some elderly aren't happy about that, too bad. A few versus the many. And yes if the Russians came to my neighborhood and offered some assistance to keep my country safe, I would appreciate their assistance. This has nothing to do with the US asserting dominance over another country or region, it is a gesture of good will.

      What a biased report! I know this is an old post, but as a South Korean, I feel compelled to straighten up the story. This report is not only biased, but it’s also poor on the facts.
      1. The villagers (farmers), are hateful of outsiders all together (and not just the American military as grandma made it sound like in the interview). The then opposing political party made the introduction of THAAD to Korea, a major political issue, and thus protestors in thousands stormed this once quiet tiny little peaceful village. Some of these protestors were delusional hippies coming from all parts of the country, but most are sympathizers of the North Korean regime (yes it’s crazy, but we have the kind). Now add that to folks from the US and Korean military trying to setup shop there, riot police trying to block the protestors from throwing rocks at soldiers, national and international news crew trying to cover the story = SHIT SHOW. Of course grandma wants to go back to the old days.
      2. Because the powerful X-band radar (an integral part of the THAAD system), points north and north west, it not only has a missile detection range that covers the whole of North Korea, it can easily be repositioned to detect what is going on in China. THAAD is going to be operated by the US military. The reason I say this report is biased is not only because the reporter failed to interview folks on both sides, it is absolutely non-sense that one talks about this issue without the diplomatic fall-out between China and South Korea because of THAAD. Because China has limited if any leverage over the US, it first blackmailed, and then executed sanctions against South Korea, in hopes that the South Korean government would halt the setup. Many big South Korean business ventures in China suffered as a result.
      3. At a national level, the vast majority of South Koreans do not oppose THAAD. Many are concerned due to China’s economic retaliation, but even so, most think it is a necessary cost to pay.

      They are an invaluable foothold within the northeast Asia region, and our only main base on the mainland in the region. The real benefit of the base is to provide America and its allies a forward operating base for inevitable conflict with China. Also, if you think that the Chinese and Russians "left NK long ago" then you are blind. While they do not have direct military installations, to our knowledge, in NK, they provide invaluable assistance and have proven unwilling to actually want to stop NK nuclear ambitions, despite direct threats to destroy America.
      The alliance between SK and America is like any other alliance in history, it's strategic and only exists for each nation's own interests. America has spent countless treasure on defending SK for the last 60+ years, meanwhile SK has chosen to take this for granted and just focused on their economy instead of national defense. At the end of the day, they are a strategic asset and it's always preferable that Seoul be attacked over any American city.

      THAAD is defence against long distance missles. Also having THAAD in their village has now made it a military target where previously it would not have been endangered by attacks.

Have you not learnt anything from the Korean war? NK would use anything against its enemy to attack to go as far as digging under them to come from behind so the thought of village is not a target would be a nonsensical idea if you don't understand the Art of War.

      SK forces are very tech and well trained...and are likely some of the most potent in Asia. NK forces would likely be decimated by SK if they released missiles. When looking at the massive concentration and hardware on the northern border, there is no sneak attack available.
      The US is not required in SK anymore and it is pretty clear when speaking to most SK, there is little concern regarding NK missiles.

The elderly in Korea has faced a lot of tensions between the U.S. Military and North Korea which always pisses them off. The THAAD can't do anything (except shoot down nukes and missiles) It can't protect Seoul or any of their valuable cities. That's what the elderly think, the young doesn't obviously care but they're few who were taught about war from their grand parents. So all South Koreans aren't supporters of Kim.

    • @kylewolfe_
      @kylewolfe_ 7 лет назад +2

      They just don't want the THAAD in their village and all the military presence surrounding it because it makes them a target in the case of war. North Korea's top priority would be to launch a preemptive strike to destroy these missile defense systems before carrying out a full on ballistic strike on Seoul and the largest military installations. If they hadn't deployed these countermeasures here, the unassuming village would have no strategic merits for attacking it from NK's perspective.

    I was stationed in the DMZ back in 07-08 and never had a bad experience with the locals like that older lady asking the U.S. to get out. I respect her view but I do think they are safer with us there. They would be run down by the North if it wasn't for the coalition forces. I've seen it first hand the bridges ready to explode and collapse onto Southbound Tanks. It Sad anyway to see these people of the North Starve to death

      South Korea spends 29 times more on its defence budget than North Korea does. Coincidentally, that is literally the exact ratio of U.S. defence spending to Canadian defence spending, just to give some perspective on how large that is. (US, CAN 2017)
      I think people can simultaneously hold the position that American bases and military presence in South Korea is overwhelmingly popular, beneficial and provides deterence/reassurance, while also not having delusions that the South Korean military would be helpless to a North Korean onslaught.
      It just seems really really disrespectful and condescending to South Korea, it's like saying that the US is based in Germany to make sure that Belarus doesn't simultaneously invade France, Germany, Spain, Italy and naval invade UK and paradrop London all of this happening on the same day. Like come on.
      The biggest benefit of the US being there in terms of what would actually happen in wartime, would be to surge lots of combat aircraft to do maximum amounts of sorties and ISTAR to destroy North Korean MLRS and artillery, that's the biggest threat to South Korea. South Korea is assured to win and may even win with relativley low military casualties, but their weakness is that they have no strategic depth and their major population centers are all in the firing line to North Korean MLRS and artillery.

    Thank you for the good report. For balance, please find and interview more old people who are more knowledgeable and know that the Korean War was the north's attempt to conquer and take over the south and, aside from Un's priority which is just to stay in power, he would do so if the US military was not there. I served in the Army at the original Camp Humphryrs from 1967 to 1969 when it was only a medium cargo helicopter company.

      Al gebra Yes, but the resulting government and economy benefited the south. I didn't voluntarily join to "fight," and the US has remained there after the truce as guard duty and the DMZ was not peaceful as it is today. About once a month there was an incident that resulted in at least one dead ROK soldier or American.

      What a biased report! I know this is an old post, but as a South Korean, I feel compelled to straighten up the story. This report is not only biased, but it’s also poor on the facts.
      1. The villagers (farmers), are hateful of outsiders all together (and not just the American military as grandma made it sound like in the interview). The then opposing political party made the introduction of THAAD to Korea, a major political issue, and thus protestors in thousands stormed this once quiet tiny little peaceful village. Some of these protestors were delusional hippies coming from all parts of the country, but most are sympathizers of the North Korean regime (yes it’s crazy, but we have the kind). Now add that to folks from the US and Korean military trying to setup shop there, riot police trying to block the protestors from throwing rocks at soldiers, national and international news crew trying to cover the story = SHIT SHOW. Of course grandma wants to go back to the old days.
      2. Because the powerful X-band radar (an integral part of the THAAD system), points north and north west, it not only has a missile detection range that covers the whole of North Korea, it can easily be repositioned to detect what is going on in China. THAAD is going to be operated by the US military. The reason I say this report is biased is not only because the reporter failed to interview folks on both sides, it is absolutely non-sense that one talks about this issue without the diplomatic fall-out between China and South Korea because of THAAD. Because China has limited if any leverage over the US, it first blackmailed, and then executed sanctions against South Korea, in hopes that the South Korean government would halt the setup. Many big South Korean business ventures in China suffered as a result.

    I don`t understand why South Korean villagers are protesting deployment of THAAD and the U.S. military forces in South Korea.

Or do they think North Korea`s brutal rule is much more preferable?

      North Korean ballistic missiles had overflown my country twice in the past few weeks, and I don`t live in a safe neighborhood with no worries. In fact, my people are very concerned about the outbreak of war in the Korean peninsula, and we couldn`t be bystanders. As countermeasures against incoming North Korean ballistic missiles, we`re willing to offer lands for Aegis Ashore and THAAD.

      I agree with Vietnam and see where you come from with Korea, but the south koreans actually wanted a change. Most of the south vietnamese didn't really care about the cause.

      Kerk 123 So? I want to see Korea. No South and North. Do you want see America be like North America and South America? I think not.

      Right, because killing off several generations of a family as punishment for the crimes of one member of the family is completely justified. Because sending the political opposition or anyone who displays any discontent against the party or dear leader to a labor camp to be worked to death is perfectly normal and not tyrannical in the least. God, you are dense.
