Tongil Park (Gangneung)

Aninjin and Jeongdongjin in Gangneung, the central coastal city of Gangwon-do, are sites of national confrontation where the sorrow of war lies hidden. This is where North Korean troops first landed in their southward invasion on June 25, 1950, and where a North Korean submarine infiltrated on 1996.9.18, shocking the entire nation. To honor the pain of the Korean War, the September 18 submarine incident and armed guerrilla infiltrations, the Unification Park was created here as a large exhibition park displaying military equipment in one place, wishing for peaceful reunification and emphasizing the importance of national security. However, in October 2021, the retired warship Jeonbuk displayed at the vessel exhibition hall was dismantled due to aging facilities and safety concerns, disappearing into history. In March 2024, work also began to move the North Korean submarine to the Republic of Korea Navy 1st Fleet Command.
