Absolutely not, regardless of any danger they may cause, regardless of opposition of people who live in the area, because that would be "an excessive restriction on free speech" according to south korean courts.
So i guess North Korea must uphold human rights and continue sending the balloons south, right?
Sending bibles is vital work, definitely worth the risk of retaliation, the actual retaliation, the danger posed to north koreans whose land the balloons might fall on when they're found to possess contraband that they didn't ask for.
"South Korea (MNN) — South Korea’s Constitutional Court recently overturned a 2020 law that stopped people from sending anti-regime information to North Korea."
VOM: "When we asked what we could do to help, the underground church didn’t ask for food or freedom. They asked for tools so that they could continue and expand their work of proclaiming the gospel."
North Korean defector Lee Min-bok said that Park has jeopardized the entire balloon campaign by provoking both governments, “[the] extremely provocative language in Park Sang-hak's leaflets has nothing to do with promoting North Korean human rights, but is tailored to please conservatives and provoke progressives in the South...[he] wants to become a hero by going to prison for fighting this law”.

"At this time of great uncertainty, we must ask ourselves on whose side we want to stand: those who reach out with concern to the North Korean people with messages of truth, hope, and love, or do we want to stand on the side of Kim Jong-il, the man responsible for genocide against the people of North Korea."

Yes, well said, but dick-flicking them until they stop talking to you isn't achieving any of that is it...
VOM again: 'People think about “North Korea Ministry” as supplying to North Korea what it lacks: food, human rights, and even movies on USB and DVDs. But VOM Korea’s North Korean ministry begins with what North Korea has: one of the strongest churches in the world, growing faster than the South Korean church.'
"It is said that the tree of peace lives off blood and that freedom is not free. Somebody has to sacrifice themselves, so if I'm killed by Kim Jong Un’s gun, it'll be an honor." -- #ParkSangHak
Presumably that also includes the blood of journalists whose head you've smashed in with bricks...
North Korea has sent balloons full of trash, toilet paper and suspected animal faeces into the South, local media reports said Wednesday, with Seoul's military slamming Pyongyang for their "low class" actions. #NorthKorea#balloons#faeces#SouthKorea
"North Korea flew hundreds of trash-carrying balloons toward South Korea in one of its most bizarre provocations against its rival in years, prompting the South's military to mobilize chemical and explosive response teams to recover objects and debris in different parts of the country."
CBS News reports the action is "an apparent retaliation against South Korean activists for flying anti-Pyongyang propaganda leaflets across the border."
