SORRY ‘BOUT THAT!   Yet again, the South Korean government endangers the families of its forgotten prisoners of war.

DON’T THINK OF THEM AS LOVED ONES.  Think of them as hostages  (more).

FOR THE FIRST TIME, senior South Korean officials have commemorated the anniversary of a 2002 sea battle with North Korean patrol boats that left six South Korean sailors dead.

IF YOU HAPPEN TO BE ANYWHERE NEAR BRUSSELS, there will be a screening of the film “Crossing” tomorrow night at 7 p.m. The location is Alsembergsteenweg 1131, Beersel, 1650, Tel. 02-380-43-15. More information at www.maporama.com.
