The tour begins with the birth of South & North Korea after liberation from Japan, and then looks closely at the origins & backgrounds of the War, 4 stages of the war situation and the armistice. In Cheorwon, a two-hour drive from Seoul, explore the REAL DMZ, unlike the commercialized tourist DMZ sites found elsewhere.

After the DMZ tour inside the Civilian Control Zone, visit the memorial site of the Battle of the White Horse Hill, one of the fiercest battles during the War, and the Korean Workers Party Headquarters built by North Korea before the War.
