They now are allowed to shoot back, immediately upon being fired at.

North Korea has been promising to conduct multiple nuclear tests and more rocket tests.
They responded to the new orders, for the South by saying that they, "cannot help but feel like laughing".
Their spokesman went on to once again threaten the South.

That cease fire has been broken by the North a couple times, but the war never reignited.
