Located in Ganghwa island in South Korea, Dongmak beach is a vacation hotspot for South Koreans and foreigners, including US military.
However, there has been reports of landmines being discovered along the beach, and some consider that it may be from North Korea. It's assumed that North Korean soldiers attempt to victimize residents and foreigners in South Korea, by means of flowing landmines using natural ocean current.
There have been 110 cases so far, including several casualties. Especially during rainy season, July and August, the situation is more severe, since the water level increases and thus making the mines easier to reach. The mines are shaped like metal bricks and will explode when pressured.
The purpose of this blog is to think of ways toward peaceful and harmonious unification of Korean Peninsula, including the roles and positions of the USA and South Korea.
Even though South and North Korea share the same root and use the common language, differences in cultures including daily expressions, tastes of outfits, music and movies have been getting bigger and bigger since Korea's division in 1948.
