North Korea's 'Propaganda Village'

From an observation point near the JSA, it’s possible to see North Korea’s ‘Propaganda Village’ so named by the South for the loudspeaker broadcast of messages proclaiming the greatness of the country and invitations for defectors to come to ‘Paradise’, the North Korean name for the village. The broadcasts have stopped, but the name has stuck, and those who spoke of the place don’t believe anyone actually lives there as the lights seem to come and go off as if all controlled by the same timed switch.
