Ask what Korea is talking about.

Multiple South Korean outlets report, citing CNN, that the U.S. military is prepared to launch a large-scale operation against Iran within 96 hours of a direct order from President Donald Trump. The Dong-A Ilbo, Chosun Ilbo, Hankyung, Kyunghyang Shinmun, and Yonhap all carried the story on October 26, noting that sufficient forces are already positioned around Iran and that a strike is considered likely after the U.S. midterm elections on November 3. A U.S. envoy, Tom Barrack, was also quoted by the Korea Times on October 24 saying a strike could happen "this weekend." Korean media express concern that the Middle East could again be pushed toward full-scale war.
