...North, South Korea's 37.5 million citizens enjoy a surprising amount of freedom to worship, travel, work where they choose, and even to speak their minds. In the past few weeks, Park has allowed far more public dissent than he has for years, even though some observers complain that the new liberty was mere window dressing for the two-day Carter visit.
