South Korea and US to Conduct Joint Military Drills Starting August 18

South Korea and the United States are teaming up for a big practice called Ulchi Freedom Shield, starting August 18th.

It's like a game to help them get better at protecting themselves, especially from North Korea and using new technology.

This year, some of the practice will happen in September instead of August, due to reasons such as weather.

They'll be practicing how to deal with North Korea's nuclear weapons and using cool new military stuff.

This is an annual event.
