Situation already basically over. The North had been trying to ratchet up tension as leverage, but they really don't have much to work with given that they obviously don't really want war, and everybody knows it. The South seems to be taking a more hard-line policy these days and it seemed to work.
In the end, they've agreed to a deal. The South will stop the loudspeakers, the North "expressed regret" over the landmine incident, and there's some planned family reunification to go on sometime in the next month or so IIRC. I doubt the true details will be revealed to the NK population internally.
lol @ the sensationalist media live-blogging the "incident" as if the shit was truly about to hit the fan.

Looks like the drama was enough to halt the annual US/S.Korea military exercises, but now everything's back to "normal."
