127,000 cases with 3 deaths doesn’t seem all that bad for a country that size

South Korea has around 50 million people. If you assume that at any given time you have .1 percent of the population being ill enough to require some medical intervention it would be around 50,000 people. So this seems to be much ado about nothing.

It’s North Korea, something doesn’t add up there, the common cold would probably have 5% mortality among the serfs there.
