In the strangest of coincidences, today is also the current Korean president Lee Myung-Bak's birthday.

Given that his political party stands to gain the most from this development since the more right-wing government becomes popular in times of uncertainty like now, one could say that it's a very interesting final birthday present from the Northern counterpart.
