Inside the souvenir shop, still more tourists, from Europe, looked over hand-painted propaganda posters. American tourists are still banned from visiting North Korea under an order issued last year by President Donald Trump that restricts all non-essential travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Though the DMZ has taken on something of a tourist trap atmosphere over the years \u2014 the South side is also a popular tourist destination and also has its share of kitschy souvenirs \u2014 Lt. Col. Hwang stressed that it remains first and foremost a military site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt\u2019s not that we want tourists to come, but people want to see,\u201d he said. \u201cThere are dangers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dangers are, in fact, all around the DMZ, though they are invisible to the throngs of day-tripping tourists.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/militarytimes\/flashpoints\/2017\/11\/13\/north-koreans-shoot-wound-soldier-defecting-to-south-at-dmz\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/GettyImages-866896626.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">North Koreans shoot, wound soldier defecting to South at DMZ<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">North Korean soldiers shot at and wounded a fellow soldier who was crossing a jointly controlled area at the heavily guarded border to defect to South Korea on Monday, the South\u2019s military said.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While world attention tends to focus on the North\u2019s development of nuclear weapons, North Korea has for decades stationed most of its conventional fire near its border with the South. South Korea\u2019s capital, Seoul, is only about 80 kilometers (50 miles) away from the DMZ and would be vulnerable to heavy artillery, and possibly chemical shells. Such an attack could cause hundreds of thousands of casualties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Getting North Korea to agree to move at least some of its big guns away from the border will likely be a key topic of negotiations in the months ahead, particularly now that the U.S. and South Korea have agreed to halt their next set of annual war games, which never fail to outrage the North and heighten tensions on the peninsula.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hwang generally follows a strongly patriotic and unapologetic script as he shows visitors around the usual spots \u2014 the building where the armistice that ended the 1950-53 Korean War was signed, a giant stone engraved with North Korean founder Kim Il Sung\u2019s last words, various other spots where talks took place. He still stays strongly on message \u2014 his job is to get the North\u2019s position across to the tourists, even if they aren\u2019t especially interested in listening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But he also pointed out a tree planted by Kim Jong Un and South Korean President Moon Jae-in when they held their first summit here in April, and the pavilion where Kim hosted Moon when he came to the North\u2019s side last month. And when speaking to an American journalist, Hwang also seemed a tad less belligerent \u2014 or perhaps just a bit more relaxed \u2014 on Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWar only brings disaster to our people. Nobody wants a war,\u201d he said. \u201cWe held military talks with the South here, too. The talks are moving in the direction of what humanity wants. That\u2019s peace.
