Not pulling every South Korean out of there and refusing to allow them back in when North Korea started this shit. Allowing workers to continue to go up there gives North Korea an opportunity to take them hostage. Stupid idiot....

Let the factory sit empty and the North Koreans penniless. It isn't South Korea that needs the money, it's North Korea. Don't let anymore workers in!
