A: Hey! Did you hear about something crazy happening between North and South Korea?
B: No, what’s up? Tell me!

A: Apparently, North Korea says they shot down a South Korean drone!
B: Seriously? Wow! When did this happen?

A: It was a few days ago, January 4th. They posted pictures of the drone online too.
B: Pictures? Like, proof?

A: That’s what they’re saying! They also released some video, supposedly taken by the drone.
B: Hmm...but are they telling the truth?

A: That's the thing! South Korea is saying they *didn't* send any drones there.
B: So, it’s a he-said, she-said kind of situation?

A: Exactly! It’s gotten tense. They're blaming each other.
B: They’ve been doing that for ages, right?

A: Yep. North Korea even said South Korea is their “biggest enemy.” Bit dramatic!
B: Haha, yeah! They're warning them to stop or they’ll “pay a dear price”.

A: It's not the first time either. Something similar happened last year.
B: Really? This is getting complicated.

A: Also, a military expert says the drone they showed looks like a common one. Not a super-secret military model.
B: So, maybe it wasn't even a military drone? Who knows! It’s all a bit confusing.
