"The Korean DMZ is a security zone that has separated two of the world's largest armies for more than sixty years... In spite of their dangerous nature, the Korean Frontlines have become an increasingly popular security education tourism area for both Korean and foreigh visitors on both sides of the DMZ. It is through visiting these locations in person that one gets a better appreciation of the security situation on the Korean peninsula and the tenuous nature of the armistice agreement that created the DMZ in 1953."--Page 4 of cover.
