It was reported that there were no broadcast plans for that day, but a Joint Chiefs of Staff official stressed, "We are prepared to broadcast immediately if North Korea commits any despicable acts."
Lee Sung-jun, head of the public relations office of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, also explained at a regular press conference on the same day why the loudspeaker broadcast to North Korea was stopped after about two hours the previous day, saying, "The military is in a strategic and operational position.
"We are able to carry out operations more flexibly," he said, "taking into account equipment outages and various other factors and carrying out operations at the necessary times."
In response to the question of whether loudspeaker broadcasts would be resumed, he said, "We will not be able to give specific details about the operation.
In response to North Korea's "filthy balloons" being dropped on South Korea, South Korean military authorities resumed loudspeaker broadcasts to North Korea for the first time in six years in 2018.
