The report stated that the South Korean military's shouting included news that North Korean diplomats had abandoned North Korea and defected to South Korea, as well as news that soldiers died due to explosions during the North Korean military's mine laying work in the northern part of the demilitarized zone. Given the strict control of information dissemination in North Korea, the South Korean military's move aims to spread these unknown information within North Korea and shake public opinion. After the shouting incident, North Korea temporarily suspended the release of garbage balloons and there is currently no sign of resuming it.


According to the analysis of the South Korean military, this may be due to the pressure exerted on North Korea through loudspeakers, or it may be due to North Korea's consideration of meteorological conditions such as wind direction and rainfall. According to the South Korean Joint Staff Headquarters, North Korea recently dropped missiles on South KoreaMore than 500 garbage balloons, of which over 240 landed in northern Gyeonggi Province and Seoul. Most of the filling material inside is waste paper, and no harmful substances have been found yet.
