The 2,035 t Kang Nam I is a cargo carrier, but it arrived in Hong Kong with an empty load. The U.S. was preparing for a confrontation and dispatched the guided-missile frigate U.S.S. Gary to the scene. U.S. and Japan had been trailing the vessel, which left Nampo port in South Pyongan Province and was passing southward through the South China Sea. here
