SK men can be radical, even deranged, so it won't be pretty.
Korea is such an interesting country. As late as the 1980s they were similar to places like the Philippines- ruled by strongman, endemic poverty, assassination a frequent political tool, etc. Then they just stopped that and basically became a modern Western-style nation overnight. I'm not really a student of Korean history, but I'd love to read something about the why and how behind that written by someone that knows.
They still have the occasional fist fight in their parliament, so I'm guessing it wouldn't take too much to strip away the veneer of civility there.
South Korea seems like a modern, advanced country, but they've had I think one peaceful transfer of power since South Korea has existed as a distinct country. Almost every single president has either been couped, arrested, impeached, or assassinated.
