## Key points

- Han Dong-hoon urged South Korea’s president to play Modern Warfare 4.
- He said its invasion scenario should prompt readiness planning.
- The game portrays an attack on Seoul and conflict in the DMZ.

## Summary

South Korean politician Han Dong-hoon has urged President Lee Jae-myung to play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4, saying its fictional invasion of South Korea should prompt the country to assess its readiness. He argued that officials should prepare for possible threats rather than assume conflict will not happen, and said he hoped the game’s image of Seoul in ruins remained fiction.

The game depicts North Korean forces attacking Seoul after an electromagnetic pulse cuts power, with missiles, airborne troops and tunnel assaults. Its story also features a North Korean leadership struggle in which the Supreme Leader’s sister takes power and launches a war; this drew attention amid recent, denied reports about Kim Jong Un’s health and threats from Kim Yo Jong. The game includes missions in the real-world demilitarised zone and received a 7/10 from IGN.
