The official also addressed comments suggesting that postponing the naval firing drill scheduled off the coast of Jukbyeon, Uljin, Gyeongbuk, to next month was an act of "cautiousness toward North Korea," saying, "If the firing drill had been canceled, such suspicions could be raised, but we cannot agree with the interpretation that postponing it due to weather is such a case."
