In a surprising move, North Korea has begun dismantling a significant facility at the Mount Kumgang resort, previously used to host reunions for families separated since the Korean War. This action has drawn a sharp reaction from South Korea.
The South Korean Unification Ministry, responsible for managing inter-Korean affairs, has expressed its disapproval. It urged North Korea to cease any activities at the site located near the border immediately.
The dismantling of this facility is seen as a setback in efforts to mend ties and foster communication between the two Koreas.
