- Thousands of scouts at an international event in South Korea are being evacuated from a campsite due to an incoming typhoon.
Several countries including the UK had already left the World Scout Jamboree, blaming high temperatures and poor sanitary conditions at the camp.
Hundreds had fallen ill amid 35C (95F) heat, with scouts from the UK among those affected by heat exhaustion.

Even though the participants paid a high entry fee, they could not have a decent camp. Attendees did not come to see the concert. Koreans mistakenly believe that attendees enjoy concerts
I cannot understand how it was agreed to have the Jamboree in S. Korea in July. The weather is notoriously terrible during mid summer. Why did they not take insurance against having to evacuate the camp early?

The just had the national scout jamboree in US in July of this year. They've had it before for years. I've been to two of them myself. Things happen. Lessons will be learned from this.
이미 문재인 정부와 더불어민주당 170명 의원들이 잼버리운영자금 1160억원을 횡령하기위해 계획하고 설계된것이고 어쩔수없이 현 윤석열 정부에서 잼버리 운영자금이 들어가고 이미 잼버리 행사관련 진행사항이 90%까지되어서 하기로 된것입니다.
또한 문재인 정부와 더불어민주당 170명 의원들 그리고 전라도 부안군 공무원들은 잼버리와 관련없는 국가나 잼버리 개최한적도 없는 국가를 99번 출장가서 세금으로 놀고 온것으로 확인되었습니다.

@@nicholasthompson7690 don't underestimate the summer of east Asia it's not the matter of heat HUMIDITY is the problem. You literally choke in the summer of east Asia like Korea and japan
The problem of this Jamboree 2023
1. They used the rice paddy farming area, which is indispensable when water is full, as a camping site.
That place couldn't even be used as a camping site
- According to the confirmation, the Minister of Gender Equality and Family of the Republic of Korea only said has completed the renovation,
but the water didn't drain at all.
(So they escape for Typhoon...)
2. Not even prepared for the heat wave
- Under the sun without a shadow of a tree.
- Humidity is extremely high and the number of tree shades was too low.
3. It is a land built of farmland, so mosquitoes and other insects are swarming.
4. Controversial for providing poor and moldy foods
5. Unsanitary sink -> There was a trash can next to the sink.
6. The bathroom was also unsanitary and dirty
7. Making excuses for safety, and block media from Camping site away.
The reality was to prevent them from being exposed to their bare face.
8. While Jamboree students suffer from the sun and get bitten by bugs
The organizing committee booked a pension with a lot of tree shade and air conditioning
They were having a pizza party
- Therefore, this pathetic organizing committee did not know that American and British scouting members were leaving even at the moment they withdrew.
Only when the infiltrated journalists disclosed it they known they're leaving.
9. As Korean student's participation in Jamboree was low, elementary school students who did not even complete the first-degree course were also invited to break regulations and fill their heads to fill their performance.
- Obviously, there were elementary school participants, but the committee denies this.
10. The meal was not properly prepared, the heat wave preparation, the insects were not prepared, and the typhoon was not prepared.
They withdrew their children from Saemangeum under the pretext of a typhoon coming on August 11th
- Through nature's outdoor activities, children from all over the world get along and interact
Jamboree's identity and purpose are trampled on
11. Later, it turned out that s.Korea government and politicians were spent about the Jamboree budget for trips to Europe, wine tasting, cruise trips, etc
12. Seoul(The capital city on s.Korea) The mayor said that you were lucky because who arrived at the hotel.
(He said because Others found accommodation far away from Seoul....It's ridiculous remarks)
13. The Minister of Gender Equality and Family, who came out to brief on the situation
We are not guilty, the range of Jamboree activities has only been expanded, the thermal disease was not serious, and the Ministry of Public Administration and Security came out next to us after repeatedly saying that everything is improving
The Secretary of State, who was sitting next to him, was all over the place
He didn't say anything nutritious.
...
Do you think the Jamboree crew came to Korea spending $600-700 to see the K-pop concert?
I'm a Korean and I'm so deplorable that such pathetic politicians are the politicians of my country.
The main culprits of this incident are officials in Jeollabuk-do, South Korea who used the Jamboree camping site as their main budget in farmland, the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family, and the Ministry of Public Administration and Security, which were neglecting the safety of children.
It seems that the Korean media is not properly talking about the suffering of the children in Jamboree.
As a Korean, I feel sorry for the situation. Jeolla-do, the province where the scouts were camping in, is a region that is infamous for its cartelized and corrupt society. The cartel of the local government and interest groups took advantage of the Jamboree event by sucking up the national government budget. They received almost 250M USD from the national government but did nothing, as many people witness. It is so unfortunate that the scouts had horrendous experiences in Jeolla-do, a premodern and near-feudal region of South Korea. I apologize for the whole mess. Hope the scouts have a good time in other normal regions in South Korea during the remaining period.
You always blame others for your bad deeds.
여기서 ㅁ뭐하냐ㅋ
Get rid of the corrupt government
That is K-Education. They force young people to have experience of extreme environment. One of congressmen said young scouts blamed weather because they lived rich life. What the fuck.
Korean civil servants went abroad roughly 100 times for sightseeing or something.
Spent lots of money useless.
An audit will be going sooner or later
This is really sad when kids plan for months to go have fun and meet many others..poor poor planning by all concerned 😢
I feel sorry but I think this doesn’t help children. They didn’t come to play.
@@Johnson59484 The USA came to win!
Now they can't meet all other kids, because they are dispersed to several places, but they will meet more Korean grown ups, their new hosts in new sites. And maybe they will do business with them in the future. One of the previous US ambassador to Korea worked in her youthful days in Korea.
This is more like a refugee camp than a scout camp. It is impossible for Korea to manage a world-scale tournament.
I feel sorry for the participants in this scout tournament. They may have been traumatized for the rest of their lives.

The organizers stole the money. The camp site was barely completed. The regional government used the scouting event for other reasons. Crooks. Poor kids. Korea in July is the worst weather. Why would you have it in July / August??!!
As a south Korean, I can confirm that SK goes up to 35 degrees Celsius with over 80% humidity during July and August. There are thousands of mosquitoes and we get so many typhoons throughout the whole summer. I don't understand why Jamboree chose SK 🤔🤔🤔

Whoever planned this Jamboree's location DID NOT do their research....
I'm really sorry to the students.. The Saemangeum Jamboree is an event led by Jeollabuk-do, a local government. But they siphoned off the national budget. Once again, I'm really sorry to all the students.
There’s no excuse for not providing proper sanitations for attendees at the facility. Even though the host country was given 6 years to plan/prepare, but they merely met the basics needs for the opening day of the event. Very poor logistics! Now all attendees got transferred to the capital city, and offered to tour the city and watch the K-pop..are you kidding?
It’s not a event where in you house these Scouts and Guide in a hotel, it’s basically used to enhance your life skills, people who complain cannot attend these huge events with lot of kids participating and getting to know each other.
This is very common in countries like India, I used to spend my vacation in a village where my distant aunt lived, even there sanitary conditions were basic, we had to use it, next to you you would find a chameleon, or a scorpion ,or a small lizard ,gecko like thing slithering past you. Initially I was scared, then understood that they were harmless. We had a rustic bathing house to , there was this huge copper vessel we used to heat water for bathing, no electricity, house built on slabs in the flooring and ceiling…….
Only twice food was served, they farmed the land, we had red rice, and coconut chutney and rasam . Only few vegetables,potato,green chili, and brinjal was grown ,hence only that was served twice a week , it was a village of hundred people.
@@googledoodle3977 not the same.
They pay big money to go to a place and how they can survive when they lack even the basics.
Is like sending starving soldiers with sticks to a war .-.
As being korean, I want to say sorry about this horrible situation and I swear to work hard to punish the organization and korean head leader of the Jamboree. We, the crowd of Korea, will do our best to recover this situation and not to repeat this. One more time, sorry about this situation.
Only the Koreans would apologize for this event that’s totally out of their control. Hats off to you folk!
Please do..an investigation should be done or the cultural minister should go..what a disgrace to let the kids in such poorly conditions
i dont think Korean goverment will take the blame for this.
They blame this on previous president . What a SHAme😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
It’s the government, not normal citizens
I think you should do a refund. We don't need any more apologies.
More than 30,000 people put in area with no trees and extreme heat? Wow. Thankfully no one has died.
Might be.
Countries that sent members to the World Jamboree Scouts should sue the Korean government. It is also questionable why the construction of the Jamboree main building, which will be completed in a year, has been delayed so lukewarmly. A year ago, the host minister said the Jamboree event was perfect, but this time it wasn't. There are so many patients with heat symptoms such as sunstroke, heatstroke, dehydration, etc., but there is no shade properly, and I can't even sit and rest. Does this make sense at an international competition? It is true that the Jamboree event fosters the survival skills of the scout members. But I think it's a little too much this time.
My mate son was there. Returned with horrible experiences and had a bad taste on korea. The facilities were terrible and infested with bugs, staffs were rude and hardly speak a word of English. There were many reported peeping in the girl's toilet despite many complaints but no action taken. He was terrified😢😢

I helped fundraise for the Scout Jamboree so myself and my unit could go but because of lack of interest we donated the funds to another unit who sadly couldn’t take those still interested. I count my lucky stars that I missed out and am keeping in contact with the other unit wishing them all the luck in the world.
Why isn't the Korean government reimbursing the scouts. If they aren't leaving due to the weather, but due to the poor organisation then the organisers should reimburse them.
@@positivemusichz sorry, I don't understand your response.
It's so shameful story, those local governments are thinks have done enough even after making this disaster...

A random question, can you toilet-train chimpanzees?
As a Korean citizen, we are deeply sorry to hear that several British people had a challenging time at the Jamboree site in SaeManGeum, South Korea. Many Koreans are currently quite upset about how the government and local council poorly organised the event, facilities, and food, and overlooked the consequences of the hot weather. 😥We sincerely apologise for this. I think the British Jamboree made the right decision to prioritise the students' health and well-being. The Korean government is currently working diligently to rectify the situation and is offering free entry to cultural sites, events, museums, and site tour buses for the Jamborees. I hope our government can provide further assistance to the UK Jamborees while they are in Korea. We hope all Jamborees enjoy the rest of their time in South Korea and maintain the positive Jamboree spirit. 🙏🙂
@@ostketten Hello, I'm not sure why you think I am lying. My comment was based on facts. I may be quite critical about how the Korean government and local council operated the camping site, but most people in Korea believe that it was due to mismanagement and poor organisation. Currently, the government is making efforts to support scouts as much as possible. While I think their support might not be perfect for serving more than 40,000 scouts, if you check RUclips or other social media platforms, you will see that all scouts have now been evacuated and are engaging in alternative activities supported by local councils and the South Korean government. Obviously, people may have different views, but could you please specify which elements of the comment were incorrect?

Hear Hear ! ⛈ 🌪
I want to thank the South Korean people for their amazing efforts. My daughter has had the most wonderful time. Yes it is tough ,but this is scouting,and my daughter is blown away by the generosity and efforts by the Korean people. The complaints by some scouts that their was not enough food is unfounded,and yes ablution facilities were bad ,but what do you expect from 43000 teenagers. And with regards to the weather,they have no control over it and trying to make the best of the situation.
Thank you! I'm a foreigner living in Korea. I'm very glad to hear that your daughter is having a great time here. They can't control the weather, but they certainly could have predicated the heat. Korea is always like a sauna in July and August and this period (last week of July ~ first few weeks of August) is always the peak. All of the additional measures that were put in place to help deal with the heat should have been there from day one. Thank you for viewing the situation positively, and I hope your daughter enjoys the remainder of her time here.

The biggest cause of the unavoidable events of this year's Jamboree in Korea is political influence. Originally scheduled to be held was Goseong, Korea 32 years ago. Irresponsible operation method of politicians in charge, embezzlement of operating expenses, environmental management of the Saemangeum venue, the government that caused trouble, the people and companies that dealt with it
I am an ordinary Korean citizen, but I apologize to the members around the world for not being able to help.
We respect the Jamboree members around the world
I feel such a shame
Koreans know no shame.
It was revealed that a South Korean criminal company called GS25 (formerly affiliated with LG) sold 500ml Coke for 2,500 won (US$2). It is an unwritten rule not to sell Coke to young students at high prices. However, in South Korea, the number of hospitalized patients is also increasing due to the hot weather, and they were sold at high prices to secondary students (middle school to high school).
Only two countries, UK and the US left early.
Says it all
The organisation in both countries is run by woke lefties, the same types that stopped actual tackles in rugby games at school and banned conkers and marbles.
the reason they both left is their the biggest groups, they left to make it easier for the organisers to cope.

This is an extremely sad combination of events indeed. I do wonder if perhaps the UK government could help the UK branch of the scouts with the financial situation here. I mean at the end of the day 1 million+ pounds isn’t a lot to a government, and I’m sure plenty of MPs, and even the PM himself would support such a move.
Jamboree failure: 1. Corrupt Amateur South Korea leader Seokyeol Yoon participated and 8 hours of children's belongings checked in the heat of 50,000 people: hospital admissions continued, parent anger increased 2. Drainage-heat-sanitation Mnt failure (Gov Ministers Responsibility) 3. Missing the golden time for pre-inspection 1 month ago
The reason why there are no trees or shelter at the camp site is because Korea destroyed the natural mud flat coast ( and the home of 1000s of migratory birds) to reclaim land. Its an environnental crime. The Skouting body with a 1 minute Google search could easily have found out how controversial their camp site was. Im delighted it has been a disaster ....karma for all the wading birds who have lost tbeir homes.
The UK scouts ought to consider legal action against the Korean government's Yoon administration. They shouldn't bear the financial burden that they are clearly not accountable for. Beyond the unfortunate climate circumstances, the more significant issue is the complete lack of preparedness stemming from the government's unprofessionalism. This administration seems fixated on displaying condescension and is essentially holding scouts from around the world hostage for the sake of K-pop. There appears to be a misguided belief that concluding the event with K-pop performers will magically resolve all issues and bring about a sense of happiness. Shame on them.
We will have to see if their powers can turn back the typhoon. Perhaps it will work after all?
A random question, can you toilet-train a chimpanzee?
Did the International Jamboree fail in South Korea, like the mass death of children in the Sewol Ferry? 1. The South Korean government missed the golden time. Three government ministers related to the Jamboree were mobilized, but no one did a pre-check with one month left. There were no quarantine vehicles and container houses, so insects and heat waves could not be prevented.

I agree that the South Korean government did not put enpigh money and human power into planning for this important event. All these 45,000 young people are leaving South Korea not with golden memories but only of hardship, lack of care, lack of cooling overarching architectural forward thinking huge shade covers, and alternatives for approaching typhoons. Yoon's government shows again as it did in the Itaewon Stampede tragedy, the failure to help college age students and the absurd Conscription of successful young internationally loved actors and musical groups like BTS, that it is living in a 1968 world not the third decade of the twenty-first century. Shame on Yoon, who should compensate all these Scouts for their financial losses because of a Mishandled Scout Jamboree.

Unfortunately, the budget for any large scale event in South Korea requires a 35% premium if it has any chance of launching with success: 20% to ensure no corners are cut and 15% to motivate organizers to get things done. The allotment for entertainment and drinks for the bosses are already calculated in. It's an improvement. During the military dictatorships, I would have estimated 80%, which is the case in many Third World countries.

No one will hold a scout. Jamboree, after this, they've will be too frightened of being sued or they and their country will have a very bad reputation.
I don't blame them, I was at Portumna 85....it was a waterlogged cesspit.
who are you talking to? sk government? yeah, they need to stop being lazy
@@nyxiebrizto lol what can they do about a typhoon
the weather was forseeable, normally south Korea is hot and humid especially during august. it is the organizers fault to choose that location.
I attended world scouts and Guide jamboree in school,I was a Girl Guide, stayed in a tent for 10 days and also had a dance number wearing a yellow dance dress with a red border. 😊
Only a tenth of the budget is spent on this event. In other words, their funds were stolen.
The funds went to Korean Chaebols.
한국인들 제발 여기나 잼버리 대원 유튜브 댓글에 미안하다는 댓글좀 그만 달았으면...그건 정부가 사과해야 할 일이지...... 비행기값+참가비 꼭 다들 돌려받았으면 좋겠네요. 한국에서 어떻게 대응하나 지켜보겠습니다
전라북도 잘못이죠.
안 미안해? 이런 족같은 정부 투표로 뽑아서 700만원씩 내고 온 애들 저렇게 보내는 게 안 미안해? ㅎ 니 일이나 해. 오지랖 너나 떨지 말고 ㅋ
They shouldn't say sorry if they are not sorry. Integrity is important.
As a Korean, I really am so sorry. President Yoon Ministry ruined this world festival. But now We Korean people will take care of you who suffered from Samangum. I hope you guys could enjoy the Korean culture and food. All Korean people support you till the Jamboree‘s over. Thank you and sorry for that.
I'd like to think the Govt' will help with funding for an organization that helps children.
Seoul city has provided the British boys and girls with other programmes. They seem really enjoy their time in Seoul.
Breaking News!
Bus Crash in South Korea Injuring 8 Swiss Participants in World Scout Jamboree.
we are so sorry. Im korean
I m surprised that koreans citizens in the comments are feeling sorry and giving apologies, normally when something bad involving foreigners happens they say a lot of xenophobic stuff and use the foreigners as scapegoats.
I was at the Jamboree, after we got evacuated to Seoul there were a lot of Korean citizens approaching me and being very kind and hospitible, it was so selfless of them
@@francesatty7022same here, I was in the US contingent
As a Korean, I feel sorry for the situation. Jeolla-do, the province where the scouts were camping in, is a region that is infamous for its cartelized and corrupt society. The cartel of the local government and interest groups took advantage of the Jamboree event by sucking up the national government budget. They received almost 250M USD from the national government but did nothing, as many people
What kind of inane and dumb-ass comment is this? Your handle is quite apt. You are indeed a purveyor of fairy tales.
On behalf of Korean, I really feel sorry to everyone who participated in Jamboree. In Korea, there is a maxim about this situation- I can't say any words even if I have 100 mouths. It is exactly what I think of now. And what I really sad is that this Jamboree's topic is "Draw a dream". I really hope that this situation wouldn't crash the cherishable dreams of our precious children in Jamboree. I'm also so shame to the students as an adult. Now, many students are moving toward other cities and experiencing other special activities due to Typoon, poor preparation of facilities and diseases,(unfortunately) etc. And according to Korean news paper, they seemed to have better time in other cities. What did cause this terrible situation? Well, I think the main problem is Korea society that passed over a rapid economic growth. In fact, even 70 years ago, Korea was poor and hungry country because of the war. However, over the industrilization, our country made rapid growth till now. So the politician's generation is that of poor and hungry country's Naturally, their moral notion is still living in 1960s~1970s, too poor and immoral,cruel era. After all, Korea is an odd country that its consciousness is undeveloped, while its economy and industry is developed. Finally, I think the sideeffect like this caused today's issue. By the same reason, capital of Korea(Seoul) is well-developed,but other regions didn't, especially Jeollado which contains Saemangem,the Jamboree host region.
I don't think this social problem can justify the Jamboree faults. But I just guessed which was the main problem. According to Korea news, Jeollado's public offifals took a trips using Korean's tax for Jamboree event. WHAT a suprise is that, they still plan the other trip with our tax even though they were criticized. Furthermore, they said that they are now preparing China and North Korea Jamboree. In fact, North Korea didn't join boy scouts. In other word, the goverment officials are just saying thoughtlessly. They mustn't have any guilty, I guess.
After all, I'm so sorry to everyone who believed my goverment and my country and us, Koreans. It's such a great shame to me. I wish every Jamboree students have great time after they went to other region.
I'm also korean. I agree with you. This opinion is very neutral.
I’m Chinese. I hope you guys can get recovery from this activity. You have my support. Fighting.
4,500!! I had to rewind and listen to that several times.
A quick check on a carbon offset website shows that flying 4,500 people to South Korea from the UK and back would emit about 12,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide. I'm all up for Scouting and having a good time out of doors but these are young people whose world is being destroyed. The organisers are complicit in the climate change that leads to these extreme weather events. The decision to attend has giving these poor kids a terrible legacy. People's lives are not ruined by not flying halfway around the world for an event like this. They are ruined by loss of arable land, sea level rise and starvation and that is what this is contributing to. It is not the ethical behaviour I associated the scouting movement with.
A delegation of a dozen or so going to Korea and everyone else going to France of German for a big camp would have been a far better option for everyone and the planet.
The fact that the media (BBC in particular) still don't link up people flying great distances with the extreme weather they are experiencing at the destination is a major reason we are unable to act on climate change.
BTW: the carbon offset for that 12,000 tonnes of CO2 would cost £232,000 or more and would not have been very effective.
As Scouts we are guided by these values:
Integrity: We act with integrity; we are honest, trustworthy and loyal.
Respect: We have self-respect and respect for others.
Care: We support others and *take care of the world in which we live*.
Belief: We explore our faiths, beliefs and attitudes.
Cooperation: We make a positive difference; we co-operate with others and make friends.
🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄😠
Well said.
Are they all total hypocrites?
@@PrincessPeplova Strictly a hypocrite is someone who advocates something they don't believe. I'm sure all these people believe in climate change and even care about it so they are not hypocrites. If they are guilty of anything it is a lack of self awareness and courage to act. Perhaps a sense of exceptionalism. Of course "people" should try not to pollute our planet but that is other people, not us. Someone is doing something bad but it won't be us because we are the good guys.
The Scouts promise has gone all woke and bedwetter since I was a lad.
I think it amusing to hear a little girl say she had learnt to "be prepared"...lol
I am delighted the abnormal salacious fun was not to be had
I think it shouldn't hold an international competition in Korea Please disqualify me from hosting the international competition. I feel as a resident there that we don't deserve to hold an international competition. In Korea, K-pop is covering up the bad points.
What aproblem😂
You can take this Typhoon to the court
Objection! 🌪
As a Korean, I deeply apologize to the international Jamboree scouts for the disappointment they might be feeling. These young people had anticipated a memorable and enriching experience. Regrettably, despite receiving funds of 117.1 billion won (US$89.5 million) from the federal government, the outcomes were far from expectations. It's concerning to note that the "Jeolla-do (전라도)" local government allegedly utilized over 90% of the $76 million USD for non-project related activities, including overseas amusement trips and questionable engagements with Jeolla-do-based construction companies. It's disheartening to see that a mere 10% appears to have been allocated to the actual camp development.

영국 사람들이 너보다 멍청한 것 같냐?
This is the fact. The central government is doing its best. The corrupt local government is soon under investigation.
@@dgnam9223 More than 1year ago, Kim hyun sook who is minister of gender equality and family said that "We prepare perfectly so just wait and look at it" and this is all what we see. You guys can't do anything without Moon and Jeolla-do. Please take responsiblility. What a shame.

수 많은 국제행사를 치룬 경험이 있는 대한민국에서 이런 일이 벌어진 것에 대해 대한민국 국민들 역시 매우 당혹스럽고 안타까워 하고 있습니다. 멋진 추억과 경험을 체험하기 위해 대한민국을 찾았던 전세계 청소년들에게 무능한 정부를 대신해 한국인으로서 미안한 마음을 전합니다.
We are sorry. As a Korean adult i am sorry. It is adult mistake that the youngest never expected. We all are sorry.
It was disgusting adult. You need to sue those disgusting adult in Korea
As a Korean, I apologize to the British people and all the Jamboree participants. Many Koreans are also very angry because of this jamboree. Ministers and officials who run this Jamboree horribly are being criticised and will be punished.
'Be Prepared' as I remember. Not.
As a Korean citizen, I am sorry of providing jamboree, not a pleasant experience
You don't feel sorry when taking the money?
It's our country, but I feel this situation is very serious. I'm so embarrassed, and I'm so sorry for them...
The people are now angry...
(There may be an error because it is a translation.)
You can start with compensation.
Next time find a country that provides complete cooling system with three full course meals a day They are boy scouts not soldiers
U sure this is Korea? This is best country in the world
1 million pounds for hotel rooms and a flight back.
I'm so sorry for the incompetence of the Korean government, and for the Scouts who have had a bad experience...The Korean government now does not have the ability to run the country. That's why there's a repeat of the catastrophe...
Stop bringing politics here. Looks very ugly
Apologizing makes everyone think you're guilty. Have a backbone
한국도 잼버리 개최를 위해 1억8천만 파운드를 사용했다.
금전적인 손해도 심하고 이미지 추락하고. 너무 한국을 미워하지마.
소수의 잼버리 책임자들이 문제라고 생각해. 잼버리 참여하는 한국인은 친절하고 최선을 다했다고 생각해. 잼버리 끝난후에 잼버리 부실 원인이 무엇인지 밝혀낼거야.
Shut up Korean gov. needs to compensate for other countries' time and money.

They just weren't prepared. South Korea only provided the ultimate survival environment.
"Be prepared"
