The Surreal and Very Real DMZ-Walking Into North Korea (With DMZ Facts/Figures)

Order: Reorder
Duration: 5:14
Updated: 25 Jul 2013

My tour of the DMZ was perhaps the most surreal and fascinating part of my month long Asia trip. I took a USO tour through Koridoor Tours to Panmunjom, home of the JSA (Joint Security Area) in the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) at the border of South and North Korea. We were given a briefing by a U.S. military officer who gave us the history of the hostilities between the two countries and warned us not to gesture toward any North Korean soldiers should we see any. We could see the U.N Command soldiers, including some ROK (Republic of Korea) soldiers from South Korea. Some of them put half of their bodies behind the buildings to protect themselves in case they were fired upon from the North. We entered the MAC (Military Armistice Building) Conference Room where the two sides meet when they have talks. In the middle of the room is a conference table-half the table is in South Korea, half in North Korea. Once I passed that halfway point, I was standing in North Korea which I did for about 5 minutes-very surreal. When I got back to my hotel in Seoul, I heard on the radio that North Korea would attack South Korea in a few days and those threats continued for weeks.

Updated: 20 Oct 2014

North and South Korea exchanged gunfire on Sunday after soldiers from the North approached the border. About 10 North Korean soldiers reportedly approached the demarcation line separating the two Koreas near Paju, northern Gyeonggi in the South, Korea JoongAng Daily reported. The soldiers came as close as 2 feet to the border, according to local media Insight. South Korean soldiers broadcast warning messages but the North Korean soldiers failed to retreat. Soldiers from the south then fired warning shots at 5:40 p.m., the Wall Street Journal reported. The North Korean soldiers returned fire before they retreated. The exchange of gunfire lasted for about 10 minutes, the Wall Street Journal reported. No casualties were reported. The shooting came nine days after North Korea tried to shoot down large balloons released by South Korean activists carrying anti-regime propaganda leaflets, the New York Times reported. ------------------------------------------------------------- Welcome to TomoNews, where we animate the most entertaining news on the internets.

N. Korean defectors release leaflet balloons over inter－Korean border 탈북단체 대북전

Duration: 1:01
Updated: 14 Aug 2015

South Korean activists released balloons carrying anti－Pyongyang leaflets over the inter－Korean border today，…despite the North′s threat to shoot them down. The Fighters for Free North Korea say they released ten balloons containing 200－thousand leaflets at around ten a.m. from Yeoncheon County， Gyeonggi－do Province. The new location is about ten kilometers away from the originally planned launch site of Imjingak in Paju. The group of North Korean defectors said the original plan for 11 a.m. was moved up due to a change in the wind direction and to avoid police intervention. The leaflets carry messages condemning the North for last week′s land mine explosion on the South Korean side of the DMZ that seriously injured two South Korean troops. North Korea′s propaganda website had warned that Pyongyang would take ″aimed shots″ at the balloons. It also labeled the campaign a military provocation and declaration of war.

N.Korea resumes loudspeaker psyops along inter-Korean border / YTN

Order: Reorder
Duration: 1:00
Updated: 18 Aug 2015

North Korea has resumed anti-South Korean loudspeaker broadcasts along the inter-Korean border, apparently following the South's recent move of doing so. South Korea restarted itsanti-Pyongyang propaganda broadcasts via loudspeakers last week in retaliation for the North's alleged landmine attacks at the border. The mine blasts maimed two southern soldiers on patrol early in the month. A Seoul military official said that Pyongyang's restart of the propaganda broadcasts appears to be aimed at preventing its frontline troops and residents in areas near the border from listening to the South Korean campaign. The North's broadcasts mark the restoration of inter-Korean propaganda warfare along the border for the first time in 11 years after both Koreas stopped the hostile practice in 2004. ▶ 기사 원문 : http://www.ytn.co.kr/_pn/1207_201508181020349807 ▶ 제보 안내 : http://goo.gl/gEvsAL, 모바일앱, 8585@ytn.co.kr, #2424 ▣ YTN 유튜브 채널 구독 : http://goo.gl/Ytb5SZ [ 한국 뉴스 채널 와이티엔 / Korea News Channel YTN ]

Inside North Korea: Relations With Russia and a Rare Glimpse of Their Joint Border

Order: Reorder
Duration: 5:09
Updated: 25 May 2015

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un never completed plans to travel to Moscow for an event to mark the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II in Europe. Despite the cancellation, there was still important symbolic meaning behind the young leader’s choice of Russia for his first overseas trip as head of state. FTV’s Anne Hu takes a closer look at the warm relations between the two states. The Tumen River stretches more than 500 kilometers, though only the last 15 kilometers before the mouth serves as a border between Russia and North Korea. Along this section are two coasts, two countries and two very different places.Su C. F.FTV ReporterOn my right is Russia. If you look further down to the right you can see North Korea’s Tumengang.Anne HuFTV News ChiefWe are at the North Korea-Russia border in the North Korean village of Chosal. Across the Tumen River is the Russian town of Khasan.Heading upstream from near the river mouth at the bank of the Tumen River at Chosal Village, we reach Tumengang neighborhood. There are close to 1,000 homes, each with gray roof tiles and blue window shutters.Tumengang Neighborhood GuideEverybody lives his or her own life. Doctors treat patients and teachers teach students.North Korean GuideThe first time I visited, my uncle was alone at home. I asked what he did. He said he managed, cleaned and served as a guide. As a youth I was curious, so I went to see the victory platform and use the binoculars.Farmers grow potatoes and corn along the border each year, but sowing of seeds will have to wait for rainy season. Life isn’t tense or busy like many other border towns, but the tranquility is broken each Tuesday and Friday when the Korea-Russia cross-border train arrives and undergoes customs inspections. Anne HuFTV News ChiefFrom Tumengang neighborhood you can see the Korea-Russia Bridge, which passes over the border. In the past, Kim Il-sung, Kim Jong-il’s father, crossed this bridge by train.North Korea founder Kim Il-sung’s fear of flying led him to choose rail transit when visiting the Soviet Union. These journeys from Pyongyang to Moscow contributed to the close historical connection between the countries and paved the way for desperately needed assistance.When North Korea was still a colony of Japan during World War II, Kim Il-sung relied on the Soviet Union for support in his fight of resistance. The Soviet Union provided assistance again in 1945, when the Workers’ Party of North Korea was founded, and on Sept. 9, 1948, when Kim Il-sung founded the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. In the 1950s and 60s, support from the Soviet Union led North Korea to have a rate of industrial development that was second only to Japan in Asia. When the Soviet Union dissolved, this generosity abruptly ended. Desperate for support in the face of international sanctions, as North Korea began to drift away from the Soviet Union, it turned to China. While Russia is still North Korea’s third largest exporter, proportionally it is far behind China, which places first in terms of both exports and imports. The discrepancy is apparent by looking at flight schedules. There is one daily direct round trip flight between Pyongyang and Beijing and no regular direct flights between Pyongyang and Moscow. In terms of the most widely spoken foreign languages in North Korea, Russian trails English and Mandarin.Former StudentKim Il-sung UniversityOf course English is the official language of the world. But in our country, China and Russia are so nearby. So we must study English first, after that we need to study Chinese and Russian as a second foreign language.North Korea’s leader, Kim Jong-un, had chosen Russia as his first foreign state to visit since taking power. While the trip was later cancelled, it still carried important symbolic meaning. Recently, Russia has proposed building a railway that cut across North Korea from north to south and links to the Trans-Siberian Railway. This would provide easy transport of coal, iron, petroleum and natural gas. Early interest from North Korea points toward more opportunity for cooperation in the future.This is FTV’s Anne Hu, Su C. F. and Yeh Chun-hao with an exclusive report from China, North Korea and Russia.

S. Korean military raises alert level on western border 한민구 ″DMZ 주도권 장악하기

We start with spiking inter－Korean tensions. South Korean military has raised its military alert level to the highest footing. A move deemed necessary... since Seoul identified North Korea as the culprit behind the mine explosions at the border. Kim Hyun－bin starts us off. The South Korean military has issued an alert on the country′s western border... following the defense ministry′s announcement Monday that North Korea was behind the recent landmine explosions that severely wounded two South Korean soldiers. Defense Minister Han Min－koo says the South Korean military will intensify its operations along the demilitarized zone. ″We will not be daunted. We will conduct operations to seize control at the DMZ.″ Han also confirmed that South Korea on Monday afternoon resumed its previous policy of blasting anti－Pyongyang propaganda across the inter－Korean border，... and is reviewing other follow－up steps it can take. This marks the first time South Korea has cranked up the loudspeakers since the two Koreas agreed that Seoul would stop in June 2004. North Korea has yet to issue a response since the broadcasts resumed，... but in 2010 when the South said it would restart the speakers in the wake of North Korea′s sinking of a South Korean warship，... Pyongyang threatened to fire on the speakers. South Korea′s defense ministry said on Tuesday that it will counter and destroy the source of the attack if the North decides to fire on the loudspeakers. Responding to the latest spike in inter－Korean tensions，... UN Secretary General Ban Ki－moon urged North Korea to respect the armistice agreement and engage in dialogue to ease tensions on the peninsula.. In regards to a probe into the landmine blasts，... military officials say North Korea may have planted the mines ahead of a possible incursion into the South. The North might have also been trying to derail an annual round of military drills between Seoul and Washington slated for next week. Kim Hyun－bin， Arirang News.

Runaway North Korean soldier kills 4 in Chinese border town

Updated: 06 Jan 2015

China has lodged a formal diplomatic complaint to North Korea after a North Korean soldier crossed the border and killed four Chinese citizens in late December last year. The 26-year-old runaway North Korean soldier crossed into the border township of Nanping in Helong City in China’s Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture on December 28, Yonhap News reported, citing an anonymous source. According to reports in the Guardian and New York Times, the soldier broke into the home of an elderly ethnic Korean couple and shot them dead. He then entered another elderly couple’s home and beat them to death with his gun. He then stole 100 renminbi (US$16) and some food from a third house and wounded a villager there. The Guardian said the soldier remains unconscious at a local hospital. Hua Chunying, China’s foreign ministry spokeswoman, said at a press conference on Monday that the Beijing had “lodged representations” to North Korea and “will handle the case in line with relevant laws.” ------------------------------------------------------------- Welcome to TomoNews, where we animate the most entertaining news on the internets.

S. Korea approves int′l female activists to cross DMZ from N. Korea 정부， 위민크로스D

Despite rising tensions between the two Koreas in the face of the North′s recent provocations，... a group of prominent female activists is making a gesture of peace. They′re expected to cross the DMZ into South Korea from the North next week. Hwang Sung－hee has this report. South Korea will allow a group of international female activists to enter the country by crossing the heavily－fortified demilitarized zone from North Korea. Seoul′s unification ministry said Friday that the WomenCrossDMZ group will be granted government approval to cross the DMZ on May 24th， but will be encouraged to do so through the inter－Korean Kaesong Industrial Zone border post. Around 40 female activists from around the world plan to embark on a peace march calling for an end to the Korean War. They′ll start in Pyongyang and cross the DMZ into South Korea. The Koreas are technically still at war after the Korea War ended in a truce， not a peace treaty. North Korea gave its approval earlier this month. The group had initially planned to cross the DMZ through the truce village of Panmunjom， but a South Korean official said that is not possible due to safety concerns. The UN Command at the DMZ was also reportedly against the idea of the civilian crossing. The upcoming plan is led by prominent American activist Gloria Steinem， with the support of Nobel laureates that helped end violence in Northern Ireland and Liberia. While the march has been in the international spotlight， some critics say a group of foreigners walking across the DMZ will do little in bringing about change in North Korea.

North Korea has warned that it is entering a "state of war" over the joint South Korean-U.S. military exercise, codenamed Ulchi Freedom Guardian. The North's state newspaper Rodong Sinmun said in its commentary on Tuesday that tensions between Pyongyang and Seoul were flaring up since the UFG continues. The annual military drills started on Monday for a 12-day run. The North also denied any involvement in the landmine attacks along the inter-Korean border earlier this month and criticized Seoul and Washington which assume the blasts were provoked by the North. Meanwhile, Gen. Choi Yun-Hee, chairman of South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff, has ordered frontline troops to "firmly and powerfully" retaliate against any provocations by the North. ▶ 기사 원문 : http://www.ytn.co.kr/_pn/1207_201508191033082117 ▶ 제보 안내 : http://goo.gl/gEvsAL, 모바일앱, 8585@ytn.co.kr, #2424 ▣ YTN 유튜브 채널 구독 : http://goo.gl/Ytb5SZ [ 한국 뉴스 채널 와이티엔 / Korea News Channel YTN ]

N. Korea′s loudspeaker campaign not effective： Experts 다시 켠 北 확성기방송 들어보니…＆quot

North Korea have quickly matched the South′s propaganda broadcasting campaign with their very own speakers set up along the border. But it looks like the regime needs to... shake off the rust... from their equipment. Connie Kim looks into the questionable effectiveness of Pyongyang′s propaganda machines. In response to South Korea′s propaganda warfare along the border with the North，... North Korea is reported to have resumed its loudspeaker campaign at the military demarcation line for the first time in 11 years. The loudspeakers broadcast messages condemning the South and promoting the reclusive regime. But the effectiveness of Pyongyang′s campaign is questionable. An official from Seoul′s defense ministry said Tuesday that North Korea′s loudspeakers are old and barely audible in the South. Experts say the North′s campaign is meant to prevent its people from hearing South Korea′s propaganda messages. ″South Korea′s loudspeaker broadcasts can reach military stationed in the front line and North Koreans living near the border line. The regime is extremely sensitive of the South′s loudspeaker broadcasting as it can reach all the way to Kaesong.″ South Korea mainly broadcasts propaganda related to democracy， news outside of Pyongyang and even weather，… information experts say could heavily influence North Korean citizens and soldiers. Analysts also say Pyongyang will not be able to do anything more than launch a propaganda campaign，... especially at a time when South Korea and the U.S. are holding joint military drills. ″North Korea is aware that the United States will fully support South Korea in case of any local war. This is one of the major reasons why Pyongyang can′t launch a military provocation.″ South Korea′s propaganda broadcasts can be heard 24 kilometers away at night and 10 kilometers away during the day. Its campaign is set to further pressure the North as the South Korean military plans to launch mobile loudspeakers along the border. Connie Kim， Arirang News.

It′s the battle of the boombox at the inter－Korean border. North Korea has started broadcasting propaganda after Seoul recently decided to do the same following a land mine explosion at the DMZ. South Korean officials and experts say it will have little effect on the South. Connie Kim reports. North Korea′s loudspeakers along the border with South Korea broadcasts contents that condemn South Korea and promote the reclusive regime. However， the effectiveness of Pyongyang′s campaign is questionable. An official from Seoul′s defense ministry said Tuesday that North Korea′s loudspeakers are old and barely audible in the South. This may be the reason South Korea could not determine exactly when North Korea′s loudspeaker campaign began. It′s been reported the North′s propaganda warfare noise was detected on the Eastern front line. However， the loudspeaker noise was also detected in some areas in the central and Western front lines. Experts say Pyongyang′s reaction was the least the regime could do to counter Seoul′s propaganda campaign. The Korea Institute for National Unification says because North Korea is aware that the United States will fully support South Korea in case of any local war， it is less likely to launch a provocation as the South Korea and U.S. joint military drills are taking place. A South Korean official also said the loudspeakers were meant to prevent its people from hearing the South′s anti－Pyongyang broadcast.

And while North Korea remains silent over the incident， another response measure is being contemplated. South Korea may burn wooded areas at the DMZ to get a clearer view of the border. Kim Hyun－bin reports. South Korea′s defense ministry is considering reinstating an old policy of burning trees and scrubs on the border if they hinder the ability of troops to spot enemy movements. The tactic was used in the past，... but was halted in the early 1900s. Fire is the chosen method over cutting... given the number of land mines in the area. The method would only be used in small areas. It would also only be undertaken in urgent circumstances. ″We will strengthen our border defense so North Korean troops will not be able to cross. We also plan to remove trees in parts of the DMZ to enhance surveillance.″ A military official said that，... if the tree－clearing operation gets the green light，... the burns will take place in the fall as the land is driest then. In 2001，...the two Koreas officially agreed to halt burns at the border to better preserve the ecology of the area. Experts say the possible reintroduction of the tree－ and scrub－clearing operations indicates the South Korean military wants to take a more offensive approach in dealing with border infiltrations. This comes as the defense ministry confirmed this week that North Korean soldiers snuck across the military demarcation line late last month to lay land mines around a gate guarded by the South Korean military. North Korea has yet to issue a response about the incident. Kim Hyun－bin， Arirang News.

Officials say Pyongyang was informed of the allies′ plans on Saturday through loudspeakers at Panmunjom, the truce village inside the DMZ. North Korea has a history of condemning the drills,... calling them practice for an invasion of the North. This year is no different as Pyongyang threatened over the weekend to take strong military counteractions against the U.S. if the drills proceed. "In response to the Ulchi Freedom Guardian exercise, we will take intense and appropriate counter-attack measures." North Korea has also resumed anti-Seoul broadcasts at the border,... further heightening tensions between the two Koreas. The move is seen as a response to South Korea bringing back anti-Pyongyang broadcasts. The South started sending messages across the border with loudspeakers after two South Korean soliders were injured by landmines in the DMZ.

Title: Defense minister vows strong response after land mine blasts We start with the political reaction today to the latest security breach at the inter-Korean border.... Lawmakers lashed out at South Korea′s defense minister for failing to detect the landmines. The minister, in response,... vowed to expand propaganda broadcasts across the border with the North. Ji Myung-kil has our top story. Korea′s Defense Minister Han Min-koo vowed stronger retaliatory action against North Korea for the land mine explosion last week. "As of now we′ve reinstated a propaganda broadcasting campaign in two frontline regions. I believe this will be strategically significant in countering North Korea and I′m also considering other measures." His remarks came during a parliamentary defense committee hearing on Wednesday, during which lawmakers urged the government to deliver a stronger response. The main opposition New Politics Alliance for Democracy party said the incident and the poor initial response had exposed the military′s weaknesses. They said someone must take responsibility for what happened and urged the government to punish those in charge of guard duty. "Now is not the time to comment on who should take responsibility. I believe we must first strengthen our combat-readiness and better support the soldiers who are patrolling the frontline regions." The defense minister said the military still doesn′t know when or how the North Korean soldiers entered the southern side of the DMZ, adding that the military cannot monitor every spot along the border. Ruling party lawmakers responded by promising to supply more mine detectors for reconnaissance in so-called "blind areas" along the border. "The committee closed the session by approving up a resolution that condemns North Korea for the incident, which it says is a violation of the armistice. The resolution also calls on the North to apologize and punish those responsible. It will now go to the full assembly for a vote. Ji Myung-kil, Arirang News." Title: S.

This year is no different as Pyongyang threatened over the weekend to take strong military counteractions against the U.S. if the drills proceed. ″In response to the Ulchi Freedom Guardian exercise， we will take intense and appropriate counter－attack measures.″ North Korea has also resumed anti－Seoul broadcasts at the border，... further heightening tensions between the two Koreas. The move is seen as a response to South Korea bringing back anti－Pyongyang broadcasts. The South started sending messages across the border with loudspeakers after two South Korean soliders were injured by landmines in the DMZ. A South Korean military official says... the North′s broadcasts are aimed at preventing its people from hearing the South′s anti－Pyongyang broadcast，... rather than conveying messages across the border. South Korea′s defense ministry says it has strengthened its security level in case of any additional provocations from the North. Kim Hyun－bin， Arirang News.

North Korea has resumed its anti－Seoul broadcast at the border. A South Korean military official said Monday， loudspeakers were used for the broadcast in several areas of the military demarcation line. The official added... that the broadcast is aimed at preventing North Koreans from hearing the South′s anti－Pyongyang broadcast， rather than conveying messages across the border. The two sides agreed to stop all loudspeaker broadcasts on the border in 2004， but they resumed after the recent landmine blast at the DMZ.

South Korea and the United States began their annual joint military exercise, codenamed Ulchi Freedom Guardian, today (Monday). The South Korean Defense Ministry says that during the military drill it will strengthen monitoring of North Korea amid its threats to strike the loudspeakers South Korea has recently switched on for propaganda psyops against the North along the inter-Korean border. More than 50,000 South Korean and 30,000 U.S. soldiers will reportedly take part in the joint drill which is scheduled to last until August 28. Seoul has resumed anti-Pyongyang broadcasts via the loudspeakers for the first time in 11 years in response to the North's alleged landmine detonation on August 4 that maimed two South Korean soldiers. The soldiers were on patrol in the southern part of the inter-Korean border. The South has condemned the North for planting the landmines in violation of the Korean Armistice Agreement, but the latter has denied any involvement. ▶ 기사 원문 : http://www.ytn.co.kr/_pn/1207_201508171021057372 ▶ 제보 안내 : http://goo.gl/gEvsAL, 모바일앱, 8585@ytn.co.kr, #2424 ▣ YTN 유튜브 채널 구독 : http://goo.gl/Ytb5SZ [ 한국 뉴스 채널 와이티엔 / Korea News Channel YTN ]

What is 2009 imprisonment of American journalists by North Korea? A documentary report all about 2009 imprisonment of American journalists by North Korea for the blind and visually impaired or for homework/assignment. On March 17, 2009, North Korean border guards detained two American journalists, Euna Lee and Laura Ling, who were working for the U.S. independent cable television network Current TV (defunct since August 2013), after they crossed into North Korea from the People's Republic of China without a visa. They were found guilty of illegal entry and sentenced to twelve years' hard labor in June 2009. North Korean leader Kim Jong-il pardoned the two on August 5, 2009, the day after former U.S. President Bill Clinton arrived in the country on a publicly unannounced visit.

North Korea denies role in landmine attack

Order: Reorder
Duration: 1:41
Updated: 16 Aug 2015

North Korea on Friday denied it was behind a series of mine blasts that maimed two South Korean soldiers earlier this month and triggered a spike in cross-border tensions. The powerful National Defence Commission (NDC) said the accusation that its soldiers had sneaked across the border and planted the mines along a known patrol route was "absurd". "If our army really needed to achieve a military purpose, we would have used strong firearms, not three mines," the commission said in a statement carried by the North's official KCNA news agency. The mines were tripped by a South Korean border patrol on August 4 in the demilitarised zone (DMZ) -- a buffer zone stretching two kilometres on either side of the actual frontier line dividing the two Koreas. One soldier underwent a double leg amputation, while another lost a single leg. In what was the North's first comment on the incident, the NDC suggested the mines were most likely South Korean devices that had been moved out of their original

Breaking North Korea threatens imminent strikes against South, warns US

Order: Reorder
Duration: 3:17
Updated: 15 Aug 2015

North Korea on Saturday threatened South Korea with "indiscriminate" military strikes unless it halts cross-border propaganda broadcasts, and issued fresh nuclear weapons warnings against the United States. The threats came amid escalating military tensions on the Korean peninsula following a landmine attack South Korea blamed on the North and ahead of a major South Korea-US joint military exercise condemned by Pyongyang. They also coincided with celebrations in both Koreas to mark the 70th anniversary of the Korean peninsula's 1945 liberation from Japanese colonial rule. Initially there were hopes the anniversary might be an opportunity for some sort of inter-Korean rapprochement, but instead ties have spiralled downwards to the familiar accompaniment of angry rhetoric and mutual recrimination. After three landmine blasts maimed two South Korean soldiers on border patrol, Seoul this week resumed high-decibel propaganda broadcasts across the heavily-militarised frontier, using batteries of loudspeakers that had lain silent for more than a decade. Pyongyang rejected accusations that it was behind the mine incident as "absurd", and its frontline army border command on Saturday demanded the broadcasts be halted immediately. http://news.yahoo.com/n-korea-threatens-imminent-strikes-against-south-warns-233843374.html

PRIME TIME NEWS 22:00 The Defense Minister announces South Korea′s military will intensify operations along the DMZ and raised the alert level... in response to North Korea′s secret planting of landmines. With national development and unity in mind, President Park Geun-hye and her officials carefully review a list of candidates to receive special pardons on Liberation Day. In response to growing public concerns over the Lotte family feud, the group′s chairman issues an apology and vows to make necessary changes within the conglomerate. Hello... and welcome to Prime Time News... on this Tuesday, August 11th. I′m Daniel Choy. And I′m Hwang Ji-hye. Thanks for joining us. Title: S. Korean military raises alert level on western border We start with spiking inter-Korean tensions. South Korean military has raised its military alert level to the highest footing. A move deemed necessary... since Seoul identified North Korea as the culprit behind the mine explosions at the border. Kim Hyun-bin starts us off. The South Korean military has issued an alert on the country′s western border... following the defense ministry′s announcement Monday that North Korea was behind the recent landmine explosions that severely wounded two South Korean soldiers. Defense Minister Han Min-koo says the South Korean military will intensify its operations along the demilitarized zone. "We will not be daunted. We will conduct operations to seize control at the DMZ." Han also confirmed that South Korea on Monday afternoon resumed its previous policy of blasting anti-Pyongyang propaganda across the inter-Korean border,... and is reviewing other follow-up steps it can take. This marks the first time South Korea has cranked up the loudspeakers since the two Koreas agreed that Seoul would stop in June 2004. North Korea has yet to issue a response since the broadcasts resumed,... but in 2010 when the South said it would restart the speakers in the wake of North Korea′s sinking of a South Korean warship,... Pyongyang threatened to fire on the speakers. South Korea′s defense ministry said on Tuesday that it will counter and destroy the source of the attack if the North decides to fire on the loudspeakers. Responding to the latest spike in inter-Korean tensions,... UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon urged North Korea to respect the armistice agreement and engage in dialogue to ease tensions on the peninsula.. In regards to a probe into the landmine blasts,... military officials say North Korea may have planted the mines ahead of a possible incursion into the South. The North might have also been trying to derail an annual round of military drills between Seoul and Washington slated for next week. Kim Hyun-bin, Arirang News. Title: S.

PRIME TIME NEWS 22:00 Welcome to the program. You′re watching Prime Time News. Live from Seoul... I′m Sean Lim. And I′m Kang Chery. Thanks for joining us tonight. Title: Koreas exchange fire after North Korean patrol boat crosses sea border We begin with the small inter-Korean skirmish at sea. The two Koreas briefly exchanged fire today near the western maritime border. It was prompted by a North Korean patrol boat crossing south of the de facto maritime border in the West Sea. South Korea′s Joint Chiefs of Staff says... warning messages were given and shots were fired. The North Korean vessel returned fire... but turned back a short time later. Although it′s not rare to see this type of incursion by North Korea,… the move could be seen as a mixed signal… as it comes just a couple of days after three top North Korean officials made a surprise visit to the South. Title: Will S. Korea ease sanctions on N. Korea? And during that surprise visit, North Korea agreed to hold another round of high-level talks with the South. And North Korea watchers say Pyongyang will be asking Seoul to lift sanctions... that were imposed on the regime back in 2010. What are the prospects of that happening? Our Hwang Sung-hee reports. When officials from the North and South sit down for talks in the coming weeks,... the easing of sanctions imposed by Seoul four years ago will be a top priority for North Korea. The sanctions,... instituted in response to the North′s sinking of a South Korean warship,... ban nearly all inter-Korean economic activities except those within the Kaesong Industrial Complex. Seoul says Pyongyang must assume responsibility for its involvement in the 2010 incident. "For the May 24th sanctions to be lifted, our stance is that North Korea must first take responsible steps that can be fully accepted by the South Korean public." Considering North Korea had been raking in three billion U.S. dollars annually from cross-border trade before the sanctions, its losses amount to at least 15 billion dollars. In that time, Pyongyang′s dependence on China has increased,... its trade with Beijing standing at around six-and-a-half billion dollars last year. Addressing concerns that the sanctions are standing in the way of improving inter-Korean ties, President Park Geun-hye has shown some flexibility. South Korean companies are taking part in a fresh trilateral project with Russia and North Korea,... building a railway running from the North Korean port of Rajin to the Russian town of Khasan. But before South Korea lifts any sanctions, it will also have to take into consideration the handful of international sanctions that have been slapped on Pyongyang over the years.

Escaping Slavery: Life Inside North Korea - Documentary Channel North Korea, is a country in East Asia, in the north component of the Korean Peninsula. The funding and biggest city is Pyongyang. North Korea shares a land border with China to the north and north-west, along the Amnok (Yalu) and Tumen streams. A tiny section of the Tumen River additionally forms North Korea's border with Russia to the northeast. The Korean Demilitarized Zone marks the boundary between North Korea and South Korea. The authenticity of this perimeter is declined by either side, as both states declare to be the reputable government of the entire peninsula. The Empire of Japan annexed Korea in 1910. In 1945, when Japan was defeated in World War II, Korea was separated into 2 areas, with the north inhabited by the Soviet Union and the south by the United States. Settlements on marriage failed, and in 1948 two separate federal governments were formed: the Democratic People's Republic of Korea in the north, and the Republic of Korea in the south. The contrasting claims of sovereignty resulted in the Korean War in 1950.

ARIRANG NEWS 16:00 Hello and welcome to Arirang News. It′s Monday, November 10th here in Korea. Live from Seoul, I′m Laah Hyun-kyung. Title: S. Korean military fires warning shots across border with N. Korea We begin with news coming out of the inter-Korean border. The South Korean military says... it has fired more warning shots across its border with the North earlier in the day. An official at Seoul′s Joint Chiefs of Staff says... around 10 North Korean soldiers approached the military demarcation line near Paju, north of Seoul this morning. 20 warning shots were fired... following verbal warnings... not to come any closer. The official added... that the North′s military did not shoot back... and retreated early this afternoon. Last month, the two Koreas exchanged fire on two separate occasions across their shared border. Title: Presidents Park, Xi agree on need for 3-way FM meeting with Japan The leaders of Korea and China, meeting on the sidelines of the APEC Summit in Beijing Monday, agreed that they should consider a tripartite foreign ministers′ meeting with Japan before the year′s end. Touting President Park Geun-hye′s initiatives to restore peace in Northeast Asia, President Xi Jinping pledged Beijing′s active support. This comes as President Xi is reported to have met Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe on the same day amid historical and territorial differences that have caused tensions in the region. On North Korea, Beijing said it clearly opposes Pyongyang′s nuclear development program, and that it abides by the UN Security Council′s resolutions against it. Title: Korea, China announce conclusion of bilateral FTA Another major news coming out of the Korea-China summit... was that the two countries have wrapped up negotiations for their bilateral free trade deal. With President Park Geun-hye and Chinese leader Xi Jinping in attendance, the two countries signed off on the agreed minutes. There are some legal fine-tuning left, but Seoul and Beijing hope the deal goes into effect sometime in the middle of next year. Choi You-sun files this report from Beijing. Korea and China began talks on a bilateral free trade agreement back in May of 2012. After a tug-of-war that lasted 30 months, and strong opposition from Korea′s farming community, the two countries′ leaders, meeting on the sidelines of the APEC Summit in Beijing, declared the conclusion of their FTA talks on Monday. Seoul and Beijing have announced they will remove tariffs on more than 90 percent of their previously-agreed products over the next 20 years. And rice, a super-sensitive product for Korean farmers, has been excluded altogether. "We have agreed to completely exclude rice from the Korea-China FTA and it will not be subject to the deal in any way. Also, the liberalization of agricultural products is at Korea′s lowest, 70 percent in terms of products, and 40 in terms of the import price." More than 6-hundred agricultural and livestock

ARIRANG NEWS 16:00 Hello and welcome to Arirang News. It′s Friday, October 10th here in Korea. Live from Seoul, I′m Laah Hyun-kyung. Title: Activists defy North Korea warning and send anti-Pyongyang leaflets across border North Korea′s demand to block the cross-border spread of anti-Pyongyang leaflets was not enough to stop a South Korean activist group from doing exactly that... earlier today. They have the South Korean government worried that their actions may have a destabilizing effect on inter-Korean relations. Ji Myung-kil has our top story. A South Korean activist group has gone ahead with its plan to fly anti-Pyongyang leaflets across the border on Friday despite warnings from the North that they would retaliate, as the day marks the founding anniversary of the North′s ruling Workers′ Party. North Korea′s agency in charge of inter-Korean relations had said that, if Seoul did not stop the group, Fighters for a Free North Korea, from going ahead with its plan, relations between the two Koreas could crumble. "If the South Korean authorities allow the leaflet-scattering operation, North-South relations will again be pushed to an uncontrollable catastrophe and Seoul will have to bear the responsibility." Seoul′s Unification Ministry had asked the activists to think carefully and scrap the plan... to give the ministry the best possible chance of improving inter-Korean ties at such a critical time. However, the government had also said it had no legal grounds to stop the group, a position that allowed it to distance itself from the issue. Tensions have been raised since an exchange of fire earlier this week, after a North Korean naval vessel violated the western maritime border. Seoul sees the move as a way for Pyongyang to position itself favorably ahead of planned high-level talks between the two Koreas. The activist group, mostly composed of North Korean defectors, routinely flies propaganda leaflets across the border into the North, prompting protests by Pyongyang. Ji Myung-kil, Arirang News.

Updated: 12 Dec 2014

[Issue] Global frenzy for cross-border online shopping! Korean firms also joining the race Bargain-hunting frenzy of Black Friday is hitting the world. Originated from the U.S., it is a period from November 28 to the end of December when retailers launch fire sales. Amid an explosive growth in online shopping from U.S. shopping sites, the Chinese-version of Black Friday has also emerged. Meanwhile, Korean firms are also joining the race of cross-border e-commerce, with their online selling of goods to foreign consumers surging. We will visit Korean retailers to find out why consumers are increasingly purchasing goods directly from foreign shopping sites, why Korean firms are launching global e-commerce sites for foreign consumers and what they need to prepare for successful launch of global e-commerce sites. [Interview] Industry-university cooperation: The cradle of fostering talents Interviewee: KIM Hyoung-kwan, Associate Dean at College of Engineering, Yeonsei University Industry-University(college) cooperation is aimed at creating a win-win and co-existence strategy in which the two sectors join efforts to research, develop and foster talented people. Since its introduction, what progress has it made and how has it been implemented? At a time when the economy is increasingly facing hardships and unemployment is rising, business startup is seen as a breakthrough. In which direction should industries and universities move forward to cooperate? [Science&Technology;] Electronic nose and tongue: The future of bio sensor technology Research on sight, hearing and touch of mankind′s five senses has made a large progress. But research on smell and taste, seen as more sensitive sectors, remains weak. Meanwhile, Korean researchers have developed sensor system that can sense smell and taste the most like humans. Bioelectronic nose and tongue using human′s smell and taste receptors is likely to be applied in infinite ways in the future, such as diagnosing patients′ diseases by analyzing odor of their exhaled breath and analyzing density of hormones that can′t be tasted by human tongue. We will explore the present and future of biosensor technology. [ICT] ICT services that protect social safety Near field communications (NFC) chips have recently been installed to the back side of the passenger seat in every taxi operating in Seoul. When passengers put their smartphones to the chip, their boarding information is sent to their guardians, helping them to use taxi more safely. We introduce you to ICT services aimed at buoying the social safety, including GPS terminals for dementia patients and their families. [Zoom North Korea] The crumbling of free medical system: Reality of Pyongyang′s public health care! Recently, North Korea has been broadcasting Ebola virus related programs nearly every day.

North Koreais a state that covers the northern part of the Korean peninsula located in East Asia. The capital city is Pyongyang . It borders of China ( 1416 km of common borders ) to the north and Russia in the north-east ( 19 km of border ) and the Republic of Korea to the south ( 238 km border ). This last frontier south is lined either side of 2 km wide by the demilitarized zone (DMZ), which is actually very heavily militarized, as monitored by a total of more than one million soldiers . The Japan near maritime neighbor, is separated from North Korea by the Sea of Japan . Led by the only dynasty communist of history , North Korea is a state in single party with a " United Front "led by the Workers' Party of Korea (KWP). The country's government follows the official ideology of autonomy of the Juche developed by President Kim Il-sung . After his death in 1994 , Kim Jong-Il , his son, succeeded him as head of state but not as President of the Republic, this function being remained "forever" attached to the person of Kim Il-sung , . After the breakup of the Soviet Union and a series of natural disasters, North Korea suffered a famine by 900 000 to two million deaths , . Kim Jong Il then adopts the policy of Songun or "military first" to strengthen the country and the government. The communist regime , type Stalinist , works in a logical totalitarian , , , , , , ; It mobilizes a personality cult around Kim Il Sung and his descendants, and one of the lowest levels of human rights in the world . The regime is also dynastic: after the death of Kim Jong-il in 2011, his youngest son Kim Jong-un succeeded him . North Korea is the most militarized country in the world in regard to the proportion of the population engaged in the armed forces , with a total of 9,495,000 men active, reserve and paramilitary . The country is developing a nuclear program , and a space program . A Commission of Inquiry of the UN in 2014 estimated that hundreds of thousands of political opponents were killed in camps for the past 50 years what it calls a crime against humanity and from 80 000 to 120 000 political prisoners are detained in camps that date. As in South Korea , the company is marked by the legacy of Confucianism (which implies respect for parents, elders and teachers), but also by a socialist culture. Warm and welcoming, the Koreans are socially conservative in the field of morals 149 . Unlike the capitalist countries, the different social status of North Korean society is very hierarchical express less differences in wages in the award by the state of basic goods (housing, food, clothing, goods consumption). The liberalization of prices and wages since 2002, however, tends to undermine traditional social organization. The establishment of a system of popular democracy after 1945 overthrew social relationships, placing the old aristocracy yangban and Japanese employees at the bottom of the social ladder, while the workers and former resistance fighters were promoted. In a context where family and professional relationships are essential social networks, the division of Korea was painfully felt as a penalty imposed on a country that was not part of the defeated states, unlike the Germany . The Korean War also affected many Korean families. The reunification of Korea is a major objective for all Koreans are a people very homogeneous.
