Han Dong-hoon Suggests South Korean President Lee Jae-myung Play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III

South Korean politician Han Dong-hoon suggested that President Lee Jae-myung experience Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4. He believes that the war scenarios presented in the game help in understanding the catastrophic consequences South Korea might face if invaded by North Korea while lacking sufficient defensive preparations.

Han Dong-hoon did not view the game's content as a prediction of reality. Instead, he used its war scenes to argue that the nation should proactively assess various potential situations and prepare in advance, rather than simply hoping that conflict will never occur.

In response to external criticism that the game actively depicts an all-out war between South and North Korea, Han Dong-hoon refuted these claims. He argued that such content can serve as a warning, prompting South Korea to re-examine whether it is adequately prepared for similar risks.

Regarding realistic geopolitical conflict themes, there are currently two opposing viewpoints: one side worries about games actively depicting war, while the other believes they can remind the public to face security scenarios that, while low in probability, have severe consequences. There is currently no information on Lee Jae-myung's response or actual experience with the game.
