A by-lined commentary of the paper says:

South Korea is now holding the DPRK-targeted war exercises with outside forces despite its lip-service for dialogue.

This is aimed to convince the public that the DPRK is to blame for the stalled north-south ties and elicit support for winning in the "National Assembly" election.

Dialogue can not be made amid gun-report and will naturally end up in disputes.

South Korea hurt the people in the north when they were grieving over the greatest loss to the nation, far from paying respects during the mourning period.

The commentary urges the Lee Myung Bak group not to talk about the north-south dialogue, bearing in mind the stand clarified by the army and the people of the DPRK that they will never deal with them.
