South Korean President Lee Jae Myung is considering an apology to North Korea regarding cross-border provocations allegedly ordered by his predecessor, Yoon Suk-yeol, who is under indictment for using drones to provoke tensions. Lee expressed his concerns about potential backlash for appearing pro-North while emphasizing his desire for dialogue, which has been rejected by North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. On the anniversary of Yoon’s failed martial law attempt, South Korea remains deeply divided in its political landscape. Lee has implemented measures to ease tensions, including banning the flying of propaganda leaflets into the North.
