  1. It’s not an error, it’s practice.

  2. And the Remainder were Reserved in Chains of Darkness Until theJudgment of the Great da, But My People I will Preserve.

  3. What a mistake. Oops 😬

  4. I know we're supposed to hate those guys, but aren't there hundreds of spy satellites? Many of which are ours and Russia and many other countries. So what's the difference?

  5. sure "accident" lol. These countries are all involved with the WEF and EDI.. They want to kick off violence.

  6. Even if it wasn't them, I'm blaming China for it anyway. They're' behind 2/3 of all the hacks against the West, why not hit their neighbors too?

  7. Just check the system before the West pulls the globe into conflict.

  8. I live in Seoul and it was quite tense but also confusing for about 15-20mins. Air raid sirens went off and then the alert came through saying to prepare to evacuate and when the alert comes through on your phone it also makes a siren noise. It was a few good moments of madness.

  9. I think something like this happened in Hawaii a few years ago … Panicking Everyone on the islands

  10. Some people are predicting 'war' on August 17, 2023; I'd say that's a lie.

  11. 6시반에 깨워놓고 잘못보낸거래 시방..

  12. Anything launched could fall on your head.
    Fear doom of some kind, thanks.

  13. The Koreans are smart enough and organized with skill levels above the rest only Israel can top South Korea and Israel is the top the best military armed forces in the world because they fight for life and freedoms are God Given in Israel because they are Gods first born.

  14. Wartime Alert by South Korea? This is how it ends? You think maybe the Atheists elites world Leaders are thinking they may not make it throughout the War of the Worlds ???

  15. What's alittle terror and tension in s. Korea and Japan….meeeeeehhhhhhh

  16. I would not want to live in South Korea, with North Korea, China and Russia fighting with them in the past.

  17. Dude.. we just don't care. This is just a way to divert attention to real things

  18. Kim it worked hacker 991

  19. Just send Dennis Rodman and we should have another 10 years of peace.

  20. Hahahahahahahahhahaha so fun!!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

  21. Hahhahahhahahahhahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhaahahahahhahaha omg this is amazing. I'm sitting here thinking "my god what could have set off an error like this, my goodness".

    Turns out its another poorly constructed North Korean dumpster that fell apart in the sky. Our bad lol

  22. Brought to you by democrats and this news station

  23. So north Korea spy satellite exploded? Oh …what a Shame.

  24. With the launch failure, Putin will ally with NoKo to perfect rocket technology. Putin has already been selling nuke tech and has publicly made it known thru Belarus he is selling nukes. NoKo being a threat is lat of Putin’s strategy to continue waging WW3 he and Chump REPUGNICANS secretly desire, together, to further destabilize the global economy to ensure their decades long war mongering can continue.

  25. My question is why this year many countries launch their artificial satellite? Is this artificial satellite used for positive purpose (such as helping meteorologists and climatologists in predicting weather and temperature change. And help receive and re-broadcast communication signals) or negative purpose (such as to spy on the movements of other nations for the purpose of the war) ?🤔😢🤒😔🙏

  26. So is the person who's in charge of sounding the alarm being charged with disorderly conduct

  27. South korea is like Ukraine

  28. The real thing will happen by 2025, trust me

  29. Who started the war and when?

  30. You are fake news. North korea told South Korea and Japan 2 weeks ahead of time that they were conducting experiments launch a space vehicle. Both militaries knew way ahead of time.your news channel is lying. I dislike North Korea but don't lie. Even Japan said they knew. Way ahead of time. You make it seem like North Korea was being malicious. That is false news. That's why no one believes you anymore.

  31. American inspired long term armistice hard at work.

  32. Next a nuke will be sent in error & nobody will believe the alert!

  33. Apparently, Naver crashed because millions of Koreans like me checked news there😅

  34. They have wartime alerts. We have active shooter alerts. Difference? Ours are real, theres aren't.

  35. WOW🫢, Wake Up world!
    #🙏ForUsAll❤🌎🤦
    LordHaveMercy

  36. But why is the thumbnail Japanese ??

  37. Isn’t this the second time this has happened or did it happen the first time in another country fairly recently??

  38. Just a other Hawaii fake alert seem like to me a pattern

  39. WOW—Hawaii part II.

  40. No accident. It was a test to prepare for world war.

  41. Loud speakers 🔊? Wow no mistake 🚀💥
