October 10 North Korean holiday passes without incident. Did Kim Jong-un just blink?

THE conditions were right. The rhetoric was hot. But October 10 has passed — and with it a prime time for Kim Jong-un to launch a missile. What changed?

SOUTH Korea says it is continuing to carefully monitor activity north of the Demilitarised Zone after Pyonyang marked an October 10 national holiday in an unusually sedate manner.

It didn’t set off a nuclear device.

It didn’t lob any missiles towards Japan.

This is uncharacteristic.

Especially for such a significant date on its national calendar — the foundation of its governing Workers Party of Korea in 1945.

“We are maintaining a thorough readiness posture in preparation for North Korea’s possible provocations,” South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) spokesman Army Colonel Roh Jae-cheon told local media.
