It happened on the wrong coast (east coast of Japan) to have any effect on Korea (west coast of Japan).

On the other hand it has the potential to have serious effects on places like Hawaii and California (similar to the effects of the 2006 Indonesian tsunami on Africa).

.


Whew! What a relief for the people of South Korea. Smile

They only have to worry about North Korea. Shocked

That is why it not a good idea to be conducting underground nuclear tests in the vicinity of this seisimically unstable area. Adding to that the possible leakage of radioactive material from the Japanese nuclear reactors. Let's hope for a good outcome.

I am also considering South Korea for my first ESL job.

But don't be surprised if the Korean peninsula will someday resemble a war zone.

Just look at Libya. Anything can happen.

I'm not saying it couldn't happen, just that I can't see it happening any time soon (knock on wood)...
