Y'day afternoon in central Seoul: Around 4,000 people participated in the first anti-U.S. rally under Moon's presidency. It was also the largest protest since South Korea and the United States agreed to deploy the system, known as the Terminal High-Altitude Area Defense (THAAD)...
Protesters marched with placards that read: "Trump, stop forcing (South Korea) to deploy THAAD" and "No THAAD, No Trump." The crowd included residents from the southeastern county of Seongju where the system is being deployed...(source: K.

1. Last week(6.17) an opinion piece(here you can read the full text) published by Asia Times asked "South Korea delays THAAD deployment – what next?" concluted with the following: The United States should consider South Korea’s decision to delay THAAD as an opportunity to withdraw from the peninsula.
