Iran Punishes South Korea?

From the Korea Times:

South Korea will dispatch its deputy foreign minister to Iran early next week to solve what looks like a bid by Teheran to punish Seoul for voting for a U.N. resolution on its nuclear program [boldface mine].

Iran rejected imports from South Korea since Oct. 17. At least five cases of such a retaliatory measure have been confirmed, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade in Seoul said on Thursday.

No doubt the South Korean government will apologize profusely and fall back to "You see, the Americans made us vote for the U.N. resolution" line.
