These were command post exercises, which took place indoors, largely computer simulated, although they did, um, utilized a number of troops both South Korea and the US They want to conduct probably some more training outdoors now.

這些都是指揮所演習，在室內進行，主要是電腦模擬，雖然他們確實，嗯，利用了韓國和美國的一些部隊，他們想進行可能更多的戶外訓練，現在。

Those large scale outdoor exercises that would involve aircraft and heavy munitions and tens of thousands of troops on each side had been particularly thorny and in aggravating North Korea and that's why they have largely been toned down.

那些大規模的戶外演習，會有飛機和重磅彈藥，雙方各有數萬軍隊參加，曾讓北韓特別棘手，也特別委屈，這也是為什麼這些演習基本被淡化的原因。

They're also going to talk about what's called the Op Con transfer, which would give South Korea control over its own troops during wartime.

Um, South Korea's largest trading partner is China by far, and it doesn't want to antagonize Beijing and jeopardize that trade.

嗯，韓國目前最大的貿易伙伴是中國，它不想與北京對立，危害這種貿易。

Back in 2016 2017, South Korea deployed the American Anti Ballistic Missile System fad terminal, high altitude area defense in a place called Sangju in the middle of the peninsula.

Beijing reacted with unofficial sanctions against South Korea's entertainment and tourism industry.

Certainly President Moon Jae in here in South Korea doesn't want to see that kind of retaliation repeated if it was to put more pressure on Beijing over issues that are perhaps more important to Washington now.
