In any large movement one doesn’t want to be in the crowd, you just get trampled. South Korea seems to be getting ready to be one of the first to get out of the way of the collapse of US Treasuries
Pulling the “tripwire” of US Troops out of SK would be an interesting counter move. There is bold talk between NK and SK of late...sabres rattling.
Maybe the South wants reassurances quickly? If we are gone, that puts SK on their own.
