>and not a group to be trifled with.

Perhaps They do have a large armed forces the size of which is maintained by ... conscription.

That makes it somewhat suspect, but the IDF uses universal conscription and it is pretty good.

It would be an interesting fight, to be sure.

“It would be an interesting fight, to be sure.”

Yeah

I work with some retired Army folks who lived many years in Korea.

They said that of NK was going to invade SK that they’d have to do it in Winter before the rivers and paddys thaw...

Otherwise they’d never get thru the back ups on the roads around Seoul let alone out fight the kimchis.

Interesting point.
