Kim built a city for propaganda

In 1953, at the unofficial end of the Korean War, North Korea built the Peace Village of King-dong, also known as the Peace Village. Three years of terrible fighting that claimed three million lives had tormented both the North and the South. Although open hostilities came to a stop with the armistice, neither side formally recognized a truce.

One of the most dangerous and heavily armed locations in the globe is still the Demilitarized Zone separating the two countries. The border is covered in land mines that are guarded by barbed wire fences, outposts, and thousands of soldiers.

Observers from South Korea claim that King-dong, a village in North Korea, is nothing more than a propaganda-spreading phony town. The structures are thought to be little more than painted-on window shells. From a distance, King-dong appears to be a regular village with a water tower, electricity lines, tidy streets, and lights in the windows of its many structures. However, a closer inspection of "Peace Village" reveals that it has never had even one occupant.

King-dong opened its fake doors in 1953 following an armistice that ended the Korean War and is situated in the Demilitarized Zone (or DMZ) that divides North and South Korea. The Peace Village, also known as a "Propaganda Village," is said to be one of many made-up communities in North Korea, according to experts.
