Yeongpyeong has been historically a hotspot for #NorthKorea and South Korea conflict.

This makes more sense. The Yeongpyeong official issued the evacuation notice after receiving a call from a military unit that there was a situation related to a North Korean provocation https://t.co/R6vjqGdx3N

I lived in SK for many years. There have been numerous incidents like the one that sparked this alert, including an artillery exchange between NK and SK troops that resulted in casualties on Yeongpyeong. This evac is likely out of an abundance of caution.https://t.co/AroUWkNcIi
