South Korea emergency authorities now say the PRESIDENTIAL ALERT level was 
used in error in response to the North Korea space rocket launch.

SK probably intended to send a 'normal' emergency alert instead of the WAR 
(PRESIDENTIAL) alert.  There will likely be an after-action investigation.

My correction: the alert was not sent only in the capital region around 
Seoul, South Korea; not nation-wide.
