North Korea's broadcasting to the South is only aimed at causing irritation among residents "The broadcast has been going on for more than 30 days," adding South Korea's broadcasts to North Korea consist of news that reveals the true nature of the North Korean regime or content that shows off South Korea's system superiority North Korea is hiding the fact that it is sending troops to Russia out of fear of internal opposition but the South Korean government is informing it through broadcasting to the North Experts believe that the power and effect of North Korea broadcasting is greater than that of South Korea broadcasting Residents who have suffered from noise for a short period of time are now insensitive to sound "The noise that came out yesterday was worth listening to I sleep that well now," he said with a bitter smile but there is no solution other than thawing inter-Korean relations a professor of unification and diplomacy at Korea University "There is no action that the Korean government can take immediately "The pain of the residents is inevitable in the face of a strong confrontation." as the fact of South Korean broadcasting became known through social media (SNS) young people came to Ganghwado Island for a "South Korean Broadcasting Tour." "Not long ago young people asked me on the phone if I could hear the South Korean broadcast "I also asked for a recommendation for 'performance' where I can record sounds well." there are fewer customers overall," he said "This is especially the situation in the north of Ganghwa Island." ※ This service is provided by machine translation tool The broadcasts consist of peculiar sounds like sirens and metal clanging Loudspeakers are visible on a hillside in Gaepung-gun SEOUL – Disruptive noises from North Korean loudspeakers have caused residents near the inter-Korean border to suffer for months with some complaining that their health has been compromised Data from a recent mental health assessment in Gimpo has shown that 28 per cent of the participants are experiencing significant mental health concerns Conducted by the city’s mental health welfare centre from Aug 8 to 14 it assessed 102 residents living close to the border in Wolgot-myeon and Haseong-myeon The data indicates that two individuals fell into a “high-risk category” for mental health issues while 27 were labelled as being in a “watch” category dealing with notable symptoms of stress and anxiety The remaining 73 residents were considered to be within a normal range Predominantly affecting the elderly population – many in their 70s and 80s – the noise has resulted in symptoms These symptoms have been reported since the broadcasts started last September making their daily lives increasingly intolerable which consist of peculiar sounds like sirens and metal clanging metal-grinding sounds permeate the day and night from the North depriving us of sleep and making daily life a challenge due to constant fear and anxiety,” one resident described “We plan to offer psychological counselling and psychiatric treatment for those interested aiming to enhance residents’ mental stability,” a Gimpo city official said we are proposing measures to the Gyeonggi province and the central government and installation of soundproof windows and doors.” North Korean broadcasts have also caused residents of Ganghwa-gun The Incheon government plans to install soundproof facilities in the Dangsan-ri area first reported in late July and described as high-pitched and similar to scraping metal also feature sirens and drums and persist around the clock Officials in Seoul believe this may be a retaliatory measure by the North against South Korea’s resumption of loudspeaker broadcasts earlier that month it might serve as a tactic to prevent North Korean citizens from hearing South Korean propaganda the South Korean military has been blaring daily propaganda broadcasts into North Korea in response to the North’s launch of trash-carrying balloons which began in late May These broadcasts include K-pop songs and news critical of Mr Kim Jong Un’s regime such as reports on the defection of North Korean diplomats and soldiers who was elected as Incheon's Ganghwa county governor in the October 16 by-elections was evaluated by his parents as a fresh move for guiding students to school on their first day in office Mayor Park provided traffic guidance to students going to school on the road near Ganghwa Girls' Middle School in Ganghwa-eup who controlled the vehicle and guided them to cross the road safely whenever the traffic light changed nodded only when the transportation volunteer next to him announced Mayor Park helped students go to school safely for 30 minutes with transportation volunteers "I know that when you become a group leader you usually start with a grand inauguration ceremony on the first day of your inauguration but it was refreshing to help students go to school on the street," and cheered "I hope you don't lose your initial intention." Mayor Park began his first move with volunteer work to guide student traffic It is also a fulfillment of the promise made the day before the election was confirmed When the election was confirmed the day before "I will keep the promises I made with the county residents during the election process he promised to do volunteer work for students' transportation guidance first "I will keep that promise tomorrow morning (17th)." Park's traffic guidance volunteer activities are interpreted as an expression of his will to keep his promises to voters during the election and fulfill his personalized educational pledge for reinforcement "The population cliff crisis is sweeping the Republic of Korea and the population increases only when the educational environment is good," he said "It is important to strengthen

захоронений Эти памятники отражают культуру эпохи мегалита которая может быть найдена во многих частях мира однако нигде – в столь ярко выраженной форме Hwasun y Ganghwa albergan cientos de dólmenes –sepulturas construidas con enormes bloques de piedra– que datan del primer milenio antes de nuestra era Estos monumentos forman parte de la cultura megalítica extendida por muchos lugares del mundo pero en estos sitios su grado de concentración es mayor que en ninguna otra parte Hwasun and Ganghwa Dolmen sites contain the highest density and greatest variety of dolmens in Korea which figured prominently in Neolithic and Bronze Age cultures across the world during the 2nd and 1st millennia BCE Usually consisting of two or more undressed stone slabs supporting a huge capstone it is generally accepted that they were simply burial chambers erected over the bodies or bones of deceased worthies They are usually found in cemeteries on elevated sites and are of great archaeological value for the information that they provide about the prehistoric people who built them and their social and political systems The property encompasses three distinct areas Criterion (iii): The global prehistoric technological and social phenomenon that resulted in the appearance in the 2nd and 3rd millennia BCE of funerary and ritual monuments constructed of large stones (the "Megalithic Culture") is nowhere more vividly illustrated than in the dolmen cemeteries of Gochang A significant number of dolmens are distributed in each of the three areas fully showing the development history of the megalithic culture with numerous examples of various style and type The existence of a quarry near the site is especially important in providing references to the origins nature and developmental history of the dolmens as well as contributing to the integrity of the property These components are all included within the boundaries of the inscribed property The re-erection of selected collapsed or dispersed dolmens is planned This work will be based on meticulous scientific research in order to establish the original configuration and location of the dolmens The greatest risk to the dolmens is fire and damage to the surrounding environment Most of the dolmens have remained untouched since the time of their construction their present condition being the result of normal processes of decay Although a few have been dismantled by farmers their stones have survived intact and their original location and form can be identified without difficulty The entire area of the three separate sites has been designated as a Cultural Heritage site under the Cultural Heritage Protection Act which requires that they be protected and managed accordingly The sites and the area that extends 500 m from the boundary of the each site have further protection under the Cultural Heritage Protection Act as a Historic Cultural Environment Protection Area Any form of development or intervention requires authorization and environmental impact assessment and repairs must be carried out by licensed specialists The properties belong to the Government of the Republic of Korea funding and the preparation and implementation of conservation policies for the sites and buffer zones rests with the Cultural Heritage Administration (CHA) The National Research Institute of Cultural Heritage carries out academic research field survey and excavation (in association with university museums and private heritage research institutes) Day-to-day preservation and management is the responsibility of the relevant local administrations (Gochang-gun County Hwasun Dolmen Site Protection Pavilion and Ganghwa Historic Museum provide information about each dolmen site to visitors Regular day-to-day monitoring is carried out and in-depth professional monitoring is carried out on a 3-to-4 year basis Management plans have been developed for each of the three properties within the inscribed site Their primary objective is the preservation of the original character of the dolmen sites and their immediate environments The plans cover scientific research (survey selected excavation and paleo-environmental studies) protection of the environment (selective clearance of vegetation cover routing of visitors to ensure minimal impact on the natural environment acquisition of adjacent farmland to prevent incursions systematic monitoring and presentation (signage public awareness and participation of local communities scrubs near the dolmens are removed regularly and dolmens that have collapsed as a result of unearthed land or tree roots are investigated extensively researched and restored to their original state Korea.net hosts networking event for Honorary Reporters Accord

a snow day my snow days involved sledding down hills with our own homemade sled crafted from cardboard Thanks to the steep hills in our neighborhood that homemade sled brought great speeds and unforgettable memories Those delightful memories came back to me when I came across information about a luge slide about a two-hour drive from Camp Humphreys I drove from Pyeongtaek to Ganghwado Island the Ganghwa Seaside Resort features a revolving observation deck that offers a bird’s eye view of the sea a gondola stretching across 700 meters and walking trails through unspoiled pine forests the centerpiece of this resort is its luge track make sure you get a helmet that fits near the boarding point if you paid for a luge ticket I took in the marvelous landscape as the gondola lifted me from the boarding point to the peak of the 336-meter-tall Gilsangsan Mountain Take some time to enjoy the stunning views from the peak before rushing to get the adrenaline rush from the luge course small mountains and open space landscape will give you a dramatic backdrop There is also a lounge and UFO shaped revolving cafe that gives you panoramic view of the surroundings at the top of the mountain these little gravity-fueled carts may not look like much in photos I was required to take a brief safety training The instructor showed me how to brake and steer properly so it will definitely deliver on your need for speed is a more winding track with hairpin corners If you’re not a thrill-seeker or it’s your first time riding a luge I recommend you try the ocean course first And I also personally recommend you buy at least two luge rides because you’ll find yourself wanting to go more than once after the first ride Though you may think luge carts are for kids one ride here and it will change your mind I took the valley track and as soon as I pushed on the handlebar the speed made the wind rush at me and my body moved along every curve of the course I was smiling and screaming in delight because this was so fun I slowed down to catch the spectacular ocean view It took 10 minutes for me to reach the finish line don’t sleep on hitching a ride on the luge at night the tracks are illuminated in vibrant colors giving visitors thrills and a beautiful view Ganghwa Sea Resort has activities fit for all *Children under the age of 10 years and between the height of over 85 cm to under 120cm can ride in tandem with an adult You need to purchase a “CHILD DOUBLING” ticket for your child in addition to yours Fuel up with some bibimbap at Manisan-sanchae a common Korean dish consisting of vegetables and gochujang (red chili paste) topped with a fried egg the more you’ll notice there are variances in the ingredients of bibimbap and perhaps even get as far as deciding on what your preferred version is Sanchae bibimbap is one version of the dish featuring wild herbs and vegetables not usually found in the standard recipe Since Sanchae also does not usually contain meat or eggs this is a great dish for vegans or those on plant-based diets I love to try bibimbap because one can never go wrong with this Korean food favorite and it’s a great way to sample a region’s flavors a 10-minute drive from Gwanghwa Seaside Resort This is a famous bibimbap shop is housed inside a traditional Korean home converted into a restaurant and has plenty of parking large ceramic pots used in Korean cooking to store and ferment Kimchi or condiments such as soybean paste and sauce The jangdoks are a good sign indicating this restaurant uses homemade sauces to make its food I visited Manisan-sanchae on a weekday so was quickly seated without having to wait The menu offers over 13 assorted banchan (side dishes) to enjoy I opted for sanchae-bibimbap for 11,000 won (about $9.84) I was delighted to find it included brown rice and oats which help to control blood sugar levels I quickly stirred in some homemade gochujang bean paste soup and sesame oil before digging in It was love at first bite and soon I was content and filled with a delicious meal teas and sides to the ambience and ease of ordering I was very happy with my choice to have a meal here

Watch 28sThe South Korean village of Ganghwa-gun has been blasted with an array of eerie and unsettling noises from large speakers positioned on North Korea's side of the demilitarised zone. Korea, Democratic People's Republic Of CNN and the BBC World Service which is copyright and cannot be reproduced AEST = Australian Eastern Standard Time which is 10 hours ahead of GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) which became independent from Gyeonggi-do in 1981 and grew into a city with a population of 3 million including Baengnyeong-do and Yeonpyeong-do Landification is not easy due to the nature of the island Ganghwa Island was connected to the land with two bridges (Ganghwa and Choji bridges) connecting Gimpo and Ganghwa Island in Gyeonggi Province Ongjin-gun) where Yeongheung Thermal Power Plant is located and Seonjae-do (Yeongheung-myeon which connects Ansan and Seonjae Island in Gyeonggi Province which connects Yeongheung Island and Seonjae Island and Seonjae are all connected to Gyeonggi-do so there is still a psychological distance for Incheon citizens where Incheon International Airport is located the Yeongjong-Shindo Bridge connecting Shindo (Bukdo-myeon Ongjin-gun) will be completed at the end of next year a bridge that connects Incheon's land and Ongjin (直結) will be created for the first time When a bridge connecting Sindoh and Ganghwa is built Ongjin and Ganghwa-gun (郡) are both directly connected to the Incheon administrative district which has a symbolic meaning that all 10 counties and districts in Incheon are connected to land The need for Yeongjong-Ganghwa roads was maximized during the Moon Jae In government The road connecting Yeongjong and Ganghwa was named the 'West Sea Inter-Korean Peace Road' and included in the balanced national development project in 2019 It is a project with the connection between Kaesong and Haeju in mind and was planned to link logistics between Incheon International Airport and North Korea after the reunification of the two Koreas was accelerated by exempting the preliminary feasibility study which connects Yeongjong International City in Jung-gu is a financial project that began construction in 2021 and is expected to be completed at the end of next year Shinto shrines are the same as nearby municipalities and Modos are already connected by Yeongyo Bridge so when Yeongjong-Sindo Bridge is completed a large area of Bukdo-myeon will be connected to the land the 570m long Yeondo Bridge (two round trip lanes) connecting the city and the city was completed on the 14th making it easier to travel to and from New City and Modo by the end of next year when Yeongjong-Shindo Bridge opens City and Modo were previously connected by bridges but safety concerns were raised due to their lack of durability The second phase of the West Sea inter-Korean peace road project is the last card to directly connect Ongjin-gun and Ganghwa-gun to Incheon's land calls this section the "Ganghwa Peace Bridge." Although it aims to open in 2030 it is not easy to develop private investments that were originally planned because it is not easy to secure economic feasibility The Incheon Metropolitan Government is pursuing a two-track strategy to designate the section as a national road or change the business method that is a private investment project to a financial project it seems difficult to build the Shindo-Ganghwa Bridge entirely with state funds the Incheon Metropolitan Government recommended that the Yeongjong-Ganghwa section be designated as a general national road in the demand survey for the establishment of the 6th National Road and National Road Construction Plan (2026-2030) it will become a government project and proceed with the project with full state funds Infrastructure and Transport plans to finalize and announce the 6th National Road and National Road Construction Plan at the end of this year similar demands have poured out from all over the country The Ministry of Public Administration and Security has accepted the Incheon Metropolitan Government's request to convert the Shindo-Ganghwa Bridge project which was reflected as a private investment project in the comprehensive development plan for the border region into a financial project and is currently consulting with the Ministry of Economy and Finance Even if the Shindo-Ganghwa Bridge project is converted into a financial project it must pass a preliminary feasibility study by the Ministry of Economy and Finance Since the amount of state funding is not large the Incheon Metropolitan Government should set up its own financing plan together Regarding the Shindo-Ganghwa Bridge project the Incheon Metropolitan Government requested 70 billion won in state funds out of an estimated 450 billion won two years ago Incheon City is planning to designate and develop the southern end of Ganghwa as a free economic zone and bear construction costs to project implementers as part of measures to improve metropolitan transportation the government must designate the southern end of Ganghwa as a free economic zone and a project implementer must appear to develop it conditions for the development of the southern end of Ganghwa will be prepared," adding "We will actively promote the Shindo-Ganghwa road project to solve the long-cherished project of residents in the border area as well as the development of the southern end of Ganghwa." Life&Culture Stone’s throw away from North Korea Traveling across border county of Ganghwa-gun seeing glimmers of past and peaking into future Standing atop the Ganghwa Peace Observatory and looking over at the farmland of the most reclusive state in the world unfold in front of my eyes was a strange feeling I’ve literally been to the other side of the planet yet there was always one place I could never be as a South Korean The “stone’s throw” cliche is only a slight exaggeration – the North Korean shore is just 2.3 km away That’s how close it had been all this time The observatory is located in Yangsa-myeon and requires an admission fee of between 2,500 won ($2.2) to 1,000 won the building was built in 2008 as a symbol of hope for reunification between the Koreas The top floor has coin-operated binoculars I popped in 500 won to look a little bit closer at Haechang-ri and Samdal-ri in North Korea’s Gaepung-gun what seemed to be North Korean military facilities and even a glimpse of North Korean people going through their daily routines It is located where two great rivers -- the Han River and the Imjin River -- meet and I was told that it was even possible to catch a glimpse of Kaesong Industrial Park on a sunny day Visitors can also watch a video explaining what they are seeing on the other side of the river the observatory is right next to military facilities Also keep in mind that you are about to visit a place near North Korea so there will be a military checkpoint that will check your ID and issue a visitor’s pass for you A short distance away from the observatory is Ganghwa Tourism Platform near Ganghwa Daeryong Market the building is designed after Goryeo celadon and woven cotton fabric VR programs provide a peak into the tourism spots and travelers can get guide booklets and coupons One feature was the “Bridge of Peace,” in which visitors can take photos that they can lay like bricks on a virtual bridge that connects the two Koreas it always appears to be just a few meters away from completion “The bridge can never actually be finished It’s just a symbol to show our desire for unification,” said a staff at the visitors’ center It appeared to be a cruel reminder of how tantalizingly close -- yet impossibly far -- we were to connecting with long-lost kin The tiny island of Gyodongdo is where many North Koreans who lost homes during the 1950-53 Korean War decided to settle and call home in hopes that unification was just around the corner forming what is now known as Daeryong Market and dreaming of one day trading with their neighbors they left behind You can actually rent 1970s school uniforms and dress up for black and white photos four years after the first Korean was baptized It is currently the oldest cathedral in Korea in the style of a hanok but the interior is designed in Western style It still holds weekly masses for local believers About 10 minutes’ walk from Ganghwa Tourism Platform lies old palace grounds from Goryeo but the county of Ganghwa hosted the royals for 39 years during a Mongolian invasion in the 13th century The palace and its walls were torn down after the country signed a peace
