The plan was reviewed, and tested by, the UN and by the International Atomic Energy Agency and found to be very safe. Here'san article that briefly talks about it.
And this is exactly what I suspected. So the comment from China wilfully ignored this, and the protests in South Korea probably did not take this into account.
I had a feeling this was just run of the mill procedure that's been propped up to appear unsafe by various interest groups.
China's reaction is purely political, not science.
