There's a precedent in Jay Lefkowitz's public musing on Kaesong that Korea Liberator covered: http://www.korealiberator.org/2006/05/02/jay-lefkowitz-is-right-about-kaesong/ Kaesong probably violates many international labor laws, so if the U.S. doesn’t get satisfaction it might go public with this.

No doubt their visit is causing no small amount of discomfort in Seoul.

No doubt their visit is causing no small amount of discomfort in Seoul. Apparently, the CRS is a branch of the Library of Congress. So I guess they do more than just preserve dusty old manuscripts and come up with new rules for romanizing Korean book titles! Sorry, but for some reason my mind is conjuring images of Tia Carerra's character in <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0207919/" rel="nofollow"><i>Relic Hunter</i></a>....
