Ask what Korea is talking about.

South Korea's presidential office, Cheong Wa Dae, held an emergency National Security Office meeting on Thursday and urged North Korea to cease provocations after Pyongyang fired about a dozen short-range ballistic missiles toward the East Sea, launched from the Wonsan area around 12:30 p.m., according to Yonhap and KBS World. The Joint Chiefs of Staff detected the missiles, with reports varying between ten and a dozen. The launch came as an apparent rebuff to Seoul's offer for talks to ease border tensions, which Unification Minister Chung Dong-young had urged the North to accept. Earlier, the unification ministry called on North Korea to stop acts escalating cross-border tensions and violating the Armistice Agreement, following the North's warning to resume loudspeaker broadcasts.
