Here, Husansancheong refers to 'Parkjakseong' (泊灼城), a fortress in Goguryeo near the Yalu River, and Vank pointed out that it is a trick to include all castles within its territory as the Great Wall based on the current border.
China is carrying out the Northeast Project, claiming that the length of the Great Wall, which is about 6,300 km, is 21,196.18 km including the castles built by Goguryeo and Balhae.
VANK is developing parody posters and international petition campaigns to inform China of this behavior.
