North Korea is using or removing South Korean assets without permission at the Kaesong Industrial Complex and Mt.
The Ministry of Unification warned that it was a violation of the inter-Korean agreement and a violation of property rights and warned to stop immediately, but there seems to be no sharp way to stop North Korea’s actions.

North Korea’s Chosun Central TV earlier this month.
The news that high-temperature phenomena appear everywhere is spreading.
However, a blue bus running on the city road in Gaeseong stands out.
The Ministry of Unification believes that this bus was previously used as a commuter bus at the Kaesong Industrial Complex.
Not only that, we also caught a situation where workers came to work at some of our factories in the industrial complex to engage in production activities.
Also, in the Geumgangsan Tourist Area, facilities on the south side, such as hotels, have been unilaterally being demolished since last March.
The Ministry of Unification said that it is monitoring the trend of North Korea using or demolishing South Korean facilities at the Kaesong Industrial Complex and Mt.

However, it is questionable whether North Korea will stop acting with this warning from our government.
Above all, there are interpretations that North Korea is now carrying out such actions without even the slightest notice, while completely abandoning expectations for improved inter-Korean relations and the resumption of economic cooperation.

In addition, as North Korea’s continued provocations are likely to intensify sanctions once morest North Korea, the situation in which property rights violations have to be watched will continue for a while.
