SEOUL - North Korea said on Friday it had sent South Korea an “ultimatum” about its Mt Kumgang tourist resort, saying it will unilaterally remove South Korea’s facilities there if Seoul insists on talks about the issue.
North Korea had said they wanted to discuss the removal “by writing”, not by talks, but South Korea, while proposing talks, said they would seek a “creative solution” and make the protection of South Korean assets a priority. Kim Jong Un called the South Korean-built facilities, now more than a decade old, “shabby” and “capitalist” and ordered a modern redevelopment of the tourist spot, KCNA reported in October.
