Electromagnetic pulse attack by N. Korea could paralyze S. Korea's communication system

北의 핵 EMP탄, 서울 남산 위에서 터지면 전자•통신장비 먹통
South Korea's military has raised concerns that an electromagnetic pulse attack by North Korea could paralyze the nation's communication system.
According to a report by the Agency for Defense Development, North Korea's use of an EMP bomb could paralyze South Korea's communication system, including the key military command centers at Gyeryongdae, 150 kilometers south of Seoul.
The report is based on a simulated EMP attack centered on Seoul with a 250 kilometer blast radius and ten kilovolts-per-meter of high-intensity electromagnetic force.
In mid-September, President Moon Jae-in ordered the military to fully prepare against new types of threats from North Korea, but the South's domestic military facilities and its military preparations are still considered insufficient.
