First, MBC News reports that South Korea is withdrawing its troops from Iraq at the end of the year. The US has not asked for an extension, and even if it did, it won't be possible to get National Assembly approval in time. I do know that the current government would love to keep South Korean troops in Iraq forever - as long as the US keeps asking.
