☆ South Korean leader criticises China envoy over "inappropriate" remarks
  + stars: | 2023-06-13 | by ( Hyonhee Shin | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
SEOUL, June 13 (Reuters) - South Korea's president stepped up criticism of China's ambassador on Tuesday, saying the envoy had been disrespectful in suggesting South Korea had made the wrong choice by siding with the United States against China. South Korea's foreign ministry summoned Xing on Friday to issue a protest and express "strong regret" over comments that the ministry said were "provocative" and a possible interference in internal affairs. South Korea has been a staunch U.S. ally for decades and is host to nearly some 28,000 U.S. troops but it has developed extensive economic ties with China in recent years. Its foreign ministry called in South Korea's ambassador on Saturday to express its "serious concern and dissatisfaction" over Seoul's "improper reaction" to Xing's comment. A Chinese foreign ministry spokesman said challenges in relations with South Korea were "not caused by China".

The global superstars of BTS will perform their mandatory military service in South Korea, the group's representatives said Monday, confirming a move that was long dreaded by their army of fans. The star, 29, had faced possible enlistment starting early next year after he turns 30 in December, with BTS' members already granted a two-year extension. The music agency said it was the "perfect time" for the announcement following a "phenomenal concert to support Busan's bid for the World Expo 2030." Other members of the group plan to carry out their military service based on their own individual plans, BigHit Music said. Lee Ki Sik, commissioner of the Military Manpower Administration, had told lawmakers earlier this month that it was "desirable" for BTS members to fulfill their military duties to ensure fairness.
