On June 25, the 70th anniversary of the outbreak of the Korean War, a reporter from China News Agency revisited the once fierce battle site—Tiehara-gun on Gangwon-do border on the border between Korea and Korea.
Ascending to Suyi Mountain at 362 meters above sea level, the mountains overlap, and the valley was the fierce war zone of the war. In a barren grass, there were several broken water towers erected with bullet marks. A three-storey wartime building was also preserved, leaving only the outer steel frame and the devastation, showing the great destructive power of the war.
There is a broken railroad track in Tiehara-gun, which is the old site of the Kyoto Line, which was an important railway line across the peninsula and was abandoned after the war. In recent years, the Korean government has rebuilt some railroad tracks and rebuilt a new station near the old site of Tieyuan Station. The sign of "railroad interruption" on the Taipei side of the station is particularly conspicuous.
On that day, various circles in South Korea held an event in Gangwon-do to commemorate the war and call for peace. The governor of Gangwon-do, Cui Wenxun, and others collectively released the white pigeons. Cui Wenxun said that he hopes that the war will truly end as soon as possible, so that permanent peace will come soon.
