Gwak Joonghee, Reporter at Daily Union (SNSJTV, iTimesM) | Recent fires in South Korea have been linked to detonation devices attached to waste balloons sent by North Korea, raising public concerns. 

At the fire sites in Gimpo and Paju, suspected detonation devices were found, prompting the Ministry of Defense and fire authorities to begin an investigation. 

Defense experts warn that these devices pose a more serious threat than mere trash, urging the government to respond forcefully to North Korea’s continued use of these balloons. 

As the potential threats from future waste balloons remain unpredictable, a more thorough and urgent response is needed to ensure public safety.
