North Korea's labor newspaper said Kim Jong-un, a leader of Kumgang on a local map, ordered the Japanese removal of the southern facility on Mount Kumgang.

Kim criticized the seniors' dependence policy, saying, “Kumgang has been left for 10 years because of the wrong policy of easily offering tourist attractions and profits.”

This is the first time Kim has announced that he will remove Mt. Kumgang, a tourist facility established through inter-Korean exchanges.

The Labor News also said Kim expressed "bad feelings just to see" the tourist facilities installed on Mount Kumgang.

Kim said, "Mt. Geumgang is now a common symbol of North and South and a symbol of North-South relations, which is clearly a misperception."

Mt. Kumgang has been suspended since July 2008 when a tourist was attacked by Prince Park.

According to the Labor News, Kim Jong-un said, “We will remove the facility built by the South and divide the Mt. Geumgang Tourist Zone into three to four stages to build them annually.”

Kim will always welcome a tour of Mt. Kumgang from South Korea, but the newspaper said it is not advisable for a tourism project on Mt.
