South Korea and other problems

After four-plus years of banning American beef, South Korea in April again opened its doors to the importation of our beef. Ever since the announcement of the trade agreement, there have been demonstrations against it. The demonstrations grew to as many as 80,000 people. To help placate the populace and to try to keep the country stabilized, the South Korean government and U.S. suppliers agreed to amend the trade agreement to block meat from cattle older than 30 months from entering South Korea.
