Details

Kij ng-dong (sometimes romanized as Gijeong-dong) is a village in Panmun-gun,[citation needed] North Korea, situated in the north half of the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ). Also known in North Korea as Peace Village,[ it has been widely referred to as Propaganda Village by those outside North Korea. Kij ng-dong is one of two villages permitted to remain in the 4-kilometer-wide (2.5 mi) DMZ under the 1953 armistice suspending the Korean War;the other is the South Korean village of Taeseong-dong, 1.8 kilometers (1.1 mi) away. The official position of the North Korean government is that the village contains a 200- family collective farm, serviced by a childcare center, kindergarten, primary and secondary schools, and a hospital. However, observation from the south suggests that the town is actually an uninhabited Potemkin village built at great expense in the 1950s in a propaganda effort to encourage South Korean defection and to house the PRK soldiers manning the extensive network of artillery positions, fortifications and underground marshalling bunkers that abut the border zone.
