    Here’s the thing, didn’t NK fire their rocket over Japan tho? And to my understanding most SK people don’t exactly have a favorable view of Japan, so why did they decide to retaliate (attempt)?

      DPRK’s missile was a response to joint military drills near DPRK by the US, South Korea, and Japan. These countries basically every single year do war games near DPRK simulating an invasion. While tensions may exist broadly among the people, Japan and South Korea are very united militarily, primarily because both countries are total US puppet states and their important in containing DPRK and China.
