South Korea&#8217;s military began removing its speakers from border areas on Monday but didn&#8217;t specify how they would be stored or whether they could be quickly redeployed if tensions flared again.<\/p>\n<p>North Korea, which is extremely sensitive to any outside criticism of its authoritarian leadership and its third-generation ruler, <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/u-s-sanctions-north-korean-member-of-kim-jong-uns-spy-agency-over-it-worker-scheme\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Kim Jong Un<\/a><\/span>, didn&#8217;t immediately confirm it was taking down its speakers.<\/p>\n<p>South Korea&#8217;s previous conservative government resumed daily loudspeaker broadcasts in June last year, following a yearslong pause, in retaliation for North Korea flying trash-laden balloons toward the South.<\/p>\n<p>The speakers blasted propaganda messages and K-pop songs, a playlist designed to strike a nerve in Pyongyang, where Kim has been pushing an intense campaign to eliminate the influence of South Korean pop culture and language among the population in a bid to strengthen his family&#8217;s dynastic rule.<\/p>\n<p>The Cold War-style psychological warfare campaigns further heightened tensions already inflamed by North Korea&#8217;s advancing nuclear program and South Korean efforts to expand joint military exercises with the United States and their trilateral security cooperation with Japan.<\/p>\n<p>Lee, who took office in June after winning an <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/south-korea-election-results-lee-jae-myung-democratic-party-president\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">early election<\/a><\/span>\u00a0to replace ousted conservative Yoon Suk Yeol, wants to improve relations with Pyongyang, which reacted furiously to Yoon&#8217;s hard-line policies and shunned dialogue.<\/p>\n<p>But <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/kim-jong-un-sister-seen-with-children-rare-footage-north-korea\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Kim Yo Jong,<\/a><\/span> the influential sister of the North Korean leader, rebuffed overtures by Lee&#8217;s government in late July, saying that Seoul&#8217;s &#8220;blind trust&#8221; in the country&#8217;s alliance with the United States makes it no different from its conservative predecessor.<\/p>\n<p>She later issued a separate statement dismissing the Trump administration&#8217;s intent to resume diplomacy on North Korea&#8217;s denuclearization, suggesting that Pyongyang &#8211; now focused on expanding ties with Russia over the war in Ukraine &#8211; sees little urgency in resuming talks with Seoul or Washington.<\/p>\n<p>Tensions between the Koreas can possibly rise again later this month, when South Korea and the United States proceed with their annual large-scale combined military exercises, which begin on Aug. 18. North Korea labels the allies&#8217; joint drills as invasion rehearsals and often uses them as a pretext to dial up military demonstrations and weapons tests aimed at advancing its nuclear program.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation \">\n        <\/aside>\n<p>    <!-- tags
