North Korea's Dangerous Border: Alone To The DMZ

North Korea's Dangerous Border: Alone To The DMZ - South and North Korea border tour
Previous video, trying Korean Street Food in Seoul ➡️ • 1st Time Eating Korean...
I am in Seoul, South Korea and I would like to visit the nearby border between South and North Korea. You can join tourist tours that start in Seoul and go to the border. But, I am not a big fan of such tourist tours. They put you in a bus in Seoul, drive you to the border, and you return to Seoul in the evening. I rather go on a border adventure and also stay in a hotel close to the North Korea border. So, join me on this trip to the DMZ, the demilitarized zone that separates South Korea and North Korea. Let's find out what's it like to visit the DMZ and the border between these two countries.

[@rennardish]

Ken, I've travelled to many cities around Korea, and being a fan of your videos for the past 3 years, you have to trust me on this. I'm pretty sure you're already planning to visit Busan (it's amazing and I prefer it to Seoul), but you'll absolutely love GYEONGJU. I know for a fact that you'll love it. It's also nearby Busan, I hope to see a video of you in Gyeongju soon!

[@GemmaMayHill]

Yes! Korea looks amazing! wOw great video👏

[@chaisepomme4070]

I was born in Seoul in the 60s. My mother was born in North Korea in the 30s and escaped with her parents and three brothers to the South during the chaos and confusion during the Korean War (1950 to 1953). Her father and youngest brother were killed and did not make it. She has never been to the border, but I think many elderly Koreans you saw at the DMZ might be former escapees who left behind their family, relatives and friends more than 70 years ago. Although I spent only the first six years of my life in South Korea - we emigrated to Canada, my memories of my early years are still vivid. I remember the tension among the adults around me about the Communists and potential war via hushed tones and whispers about who among the neighborhood might be a secret Communist. For what it’s worth from a lapsed Korean, I think South Koreans would in principle like reunification and to be re-united with families in the North (if at all somehow they managed not to lose touch) but practically speaking they know given the iron grip of the dictatorship in the North, it is pretty well impossible. Plus, Koreans are a practical people and know that to support the vast poor in the North would mean a significant drain on resources and standard of living the South worked so hard, sacrificed to achieve. I have subscribed! Going your own way and staying at that strange hotel was pretty gutsy. It is also kind and open-minded of you to point out that your country was also divided and that you share some understanding of the circumstances with South Korea.

im an american but i have german friends and their dad escaped east berlin in 1969 with some of his friends.they came to usa to live. i remember watching that dumb wall come down with my german friends.they were all crying and these are some tough guys. he went back to germany to reunite with his family but most had died.

I'm Korean. Many Korean people don't want to unify not that much for now. Actually, many surveys show that. There is a very very wide gap between the two countries, politically, culturally, and economically. So, first of all, Both should close the wide gap little by little.

I did the tour group to DMZ starting from Honggik University, the only difference from your trip is that we had to share the bus with other foreigners and had a tour guide. We didn't need to pay for hotel in Geumchon, take the metro or pay for a taxi.

[@anthonymorgan2001]

This does seem like a "what not to do" guide so far. Arrive in Korea with no hotel, cash, understanding of t-money cards or knowledge of the language. Speak on trains. Travel to the DMZ by the least efficient means possible, book a hotel that looks pretty rough, etc

[@ClaudiaG.1979]

i am german and my dad was born in east germany. He escaped to the west just before they wall was build.I am born in 79 and i remember we occasionally went to east germany to visit my dads family. It was always a hassle a the bordercontrol. My mum used to "prank" the bordercontrol by bringing a daily newspaper with her and everytime the newspaper was taken away by the officer. We all knew he would read it first before he threw it away. Also, the Stasi ( the secret state police) was a big thing because you never knew who was in the stasi and who wasnt. You couldnt trust nobody. My dad always suspect my uncle to be a stasi member, because he acted strange sometimes. Under certain circumstances it was allowed to visit the west. i dont know exactly when they were allowed to visit us, mostly on my dads birthday, but not every birthday and never the whole family.. When the wall fell, i remember my dad sitting in front of the TV crying like a baby. i have never seen him cry before. I truly want to visit north korea, i dont know why, maybe because its one of the last "iron curtain" but on the other hand i dont want to support north korea with my money.

I went to DMZ earlier this year, the theme park at the bus stop was for visiting S Koreans who goes there to pray. the younger generations will follow their parents or grandparents, and since they may not be aware of the Korean war, they will play at the theme park

[@teejay5295]

I can remember when I first visited what was then West Germany as a 23 year old backpacker from Australia back in 1986. I can remember when I first saw the high-security border between East and West Germany and being totally shocked to see the high barbed wire fences with watchtowers every few hundred meters; your parents are correct explaining what the border was like back in the day when Germany was split. I had the fortune to create strong friendships with the West Germans and to live their experiences whilst I was there. Ironically, there was a bit of ill-feeling towards the East Germans when reunification did occur in 1989. West Germans did all the hard work to create a bountiful society, whilst the East Germans were looked after by their socialist-led government in which the basics were provided to ensure a basic existence for the people (think Mercedes v Trabants). I'm sure your parents can confirm this. No doubt a similar experience may occur, if and when unification does occur between the two Koreas. Looking forward to any responses from the South Koreans on their respective thoughts regarding reunification and in support of your vlog regarding this question. Informative and well presented vlog, Ken and hope to do the same trip myself sometime in the near future.

[@gregorybrown2129]

Thank you Sir for the video. Very informative. You have a lot of courage to try new things that would be intimidating to others. My mom grew up in Germany during WW2. Her younger brother didn't know what a banana was until an American solder, my dad, gave him one soon after the war ended. I was over there right after the wall came down. Pretty cool seeing the former East Germans exploring the part of Germany that was not accessible to them in the past. (On a side note, I think when you say "dutchy" you are meaning to say "dodgy" which is a British English term for risky or dangerous, or you mean "risqué" which is French for indecent, or perhaps "sketchy" which is an American term for unsafe, dangerous or suspicious. "Dutchy" means difficult to understand.) This is minor critique compared to an overall great video.

You kept saying when you look over to the North Korea side, you are just looking at someone's houses. If you have done enough homework, you'd know that there's no home or family near the border. Like you said, even back in the time there was East and West Germany, people from the East had been trying to go over to the West side. North Korea is the same situation even today. People need special permission, even special social status, someone who showed strong allegiance to the government and to the party can even go to the border area. So you don't have to feel bad when you look at someone's houses. There is no residential area near the border. There are, however, a lot of fake houses just to make the North Korea look good. These houses may or may not have rooms. They could be just some building with windows, like the props at movie studio.

Lucky that Germany didn't have their version of Kim Family there. I visited Berlin not long after the wall has fallen. Some bricks of the walll were still there and I got so emotional. Now the Korea is the only country that is divided into 2 pieces in the world.

not exactly.. pakistan and india also are divided. They got divided by the brits in 1947

I have exactly the same sentiment re DMZ as a tourist hotspot as you do, as I was watching this video. I am glad, Ken, you are a sensible guy!
