The Cheorwon Inter-Korean Forest Cooperation Center, which will serve as a hub for inter-Korean forest cooperation in the border area, was completed on April 26. The center will observe forest pests that travel between the two Koreas from the border area and benefit both Koreas through test control. The site of the center is a purification of the land used by military units in the past and stands for the creation of a peaceful forest on the Korean Peninsula through exchange and cooperation rather than military confrontation. It carries a deep meaning since anyone can visit freely to check the current status of inter-Korean forest cooperation and participate in events directly with private organizations.
