Dosan Station







Dorasan Station is the northernmost station of the South Korea which is 700m distant from the southern boundary line of DMZ, the civil control zone. Since US president Bush visited Dorasan Station on February 20, 2002, it has come into spotlight internationally. imjingak Station was opened in October 2001, and then Dorasan Station, the unfinished station of the north-south Korean reconciliation was opened on February 12, 2002 (the lunar New Year's Day) through the special Mangbae train operation in 52 years after the railroad service was stopped. The milestones of Dorasan Station (205km to Pyeongyang, 56km to Seoul) imply the reality of the division between two Koreans and a future hope and expectation. Because Dorasan Station is the northernmost station of the South Korea in the southern boundary line, Dorasan Station will play the role of customs and entry for Chinese and Russian people and goods as well as the North Koreans if Gyeongui Line Railroad connection is completed and the traffic is possible between two Koreans. Also, Dorasan Station contains the historical meaning as a symbolic place of the division between two Koreans and a gateway of the south-north exchange.

Panmunjeom







Panmunjeom is where the cease fire was signed on Jul. 27, 1953, and it is 50km north of Seoul on Tongilro. The name of the village is Neolmun-ri. It became famous as a place where inter-Korea dialogue and military armistice conferences are held, and is a living educational field of remembering the tragedy of a divided country and the racial pain of a fratricidal war. Panmunjeom is the only JSA (Joint Security Area) in the world, which is commonly occupied and possessed by both armies (the UN and the North Korean army) in a hostile relationship. It was commonly secured by collecting 35 soldiers from each side. However, after the North Korean guard killed US soldiers who were cutting the branches off a cottonwood on Aug. 18, 1976, the military demarcation line was indicated, and only security work became under joint work. Members or press members who belong to either military armistice commission can access all of the places in JSA without a permit.
