The North Korean leader’s powerful sister Kim Yo Jong warned on Tuesday that South Korea should be “ready to pay a gruesome and dear price” following the discovery of more balloons from the ROK, threatening to retaliate in new ways besides launching trash balloons if anti-regime leafleting continues.

In her second statement in recent days, Kim claimed that North Korea discovered 29 large balloons “sent by ROK scum” near the border and in other areas on July 16.
