SEOUL, South Korea – South Korea is called ‘Land of the Morning Calm’ for nothing.

On Wednesday, North Korea said it launched a rocket carrying a military spy satellite which crashed into the Yellow Sea due to an engine problem.

Almost simultaneously, air raid sirens sounded in Seoul. After hearing the alarm, Seoul residents walked out of their houses as orderly and as calmly as the air raid tune suggested.

Moral of the story: Stampede kills, calmness saves lives.
