If they didn't want to reveal their intelligence intercept capabilities, that's one thing, but to reveal them now without any benefit in advance...well...

What purpose does an intelligence collection system serve if not to warn the population of a possible hazard? Don't the fisherman in the area deserve to know?

IMO, given the track record of the South Korean "leadership" this timidity about sounding the alarm is more about not wanting to upset their cozy relationships with the North (slave labor for the chaebol) than anything else.
