Renewed Tensions Between North and South Korea
South withdraws workers from joint industrial park; Football tickets prices; Zuma speech.
South Korean companies have started withdrawing their workers and property from an industrial park in North Korea, which is jointly run by the two countries. On Wednesday, Seoul announced it was halting operations in the Kaesong complex in retaliation for North Korea recently carrying out a nuclear test and firing a long-range missile.
Over a thousand Liverpool FC fans walked out at the 77th minute of Saturday's game to protest over a $111 (£77) ticket fee, which was being proposed. And it worked! Liverpool's owners have scrapped the idea and apologised to fans for 'distress caused'.
And in South Africa President Zuma is due to give a difficult State of the Union speech later on today.
