After Seoul resumed broadcasting over loudspeakers, Kim Yo Jong, the younger sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, said the measure had created chaos. “A precursor to a very dangerous situation.” It was announced that South Korea will have “new answer” If it continues with the transmission.
The appeal comes in response to North Korea sending balloons filled with garbage and feces. The country sent out the balloons again on Saturday (June 8).
This is not the first time the North Koreans have done this. However, the country's government announced on June 2 that it would halt shipments.

On May 29, North Korea sent more than 150 balloons laden with feces and garbage to South Korea, in response to leaflets sent by South Korean activists, also in balloons, to North Korean territory, including leaflets criticizing Kim Jong-un's regime and his party. Memory cards with K-pop music videos.
