Source: AllVoicesDefense Minister of South Korea, Kim Tae-young, resigned two days after the attack by North Korea against South Korean island which left two soldiers and two civilians dead.
The minister had been criticized for the response to the attack and his resignation was accepted by President Lee Myung-bak.
Earlier, South Korea announced that it amended its protocol in response to military attacks.
The government said that so far his country had put too much effort to prevent the escalation of military incidents, and would henceforth respond differently depending on whether the attack occurs on civilian or military.
