Would it be wise to send your money home before a nuclear test by North Korea?

Could you see the won dropping some?

The US is saying that they're seeing signs of a test on the way.

Derrek, as one frog in this slow-boiling pot of water to another, do you feel it getting a little warm in here, or is it just me?

Samsung, Hyundai, LG, Daewoo, and hell, probably YBM headquarters will be discreetly wiring to certain Pyongyang bank accounts, to avert any massive economic collapse that would follow an attack on the South, along with pretty much every other corporate powerhouse in the Asia/Pacifc region, long before I need to worry about things like this. The financial might of this country cares enough about protecting its economic status and who they have to bribe to keep it, to the level that Hyundai's $400million pay out to the North in 2000 would look like a drop in the bucket.

A North KOREAN nuke test.

The Koran (or Qu'ran) is the Muslim holy book and does not have a north.

I believe this is just a typical misunderstanding. Some American diplomat asked the North Koreans if they had nukes.

After it was translated it came out as: do you have nukee?
The North Koreans response was :
Of course we have nukee! Sometimes we have nukee in the bedroom, sometimes in the kitchen. A nukee test? Shocked Very Happy Yes yes we study very hard for nukee test.

The American diplomat returns horrified....stating that North Koreans are looking to test a nuke.

Sadly accurate Cool

I keep imagining a bubble expanding dangerously close to a pin when I imagine the EFL industry here in east Asia, but I can't figure out why.
