    In 1983 I was one of the JSA Tour Guides (SP4 Hall). Quite a lot has changed in the details I see but mostly it has stayed the same. In a 6-month period I gave tours to over 10,000 people from about 108 different countries. The place has a lot of sad history and based on North Korea's behavior that is not changing anytime soon. I never had the opportunity to take the full tour myself, yet it is and always will be an incredible experience.

      You’re welcome, although I think the tours have been temporarily suspended now.

    EXCELLENT video. I am in the midst of planning a 3 week trip to Seoul and the DMZ is on my agenda. I will book with the company you recommended.

      There are a limited number of JSA tours so I recommend booking as far ahead as possible. In fact a a few months ago, when that US soldier ran into North Korea, they stopped the JSA tours. I assume they’re running them again, but I’m not 100% sure.

      Glad you liked the video!! Most DMZ tours DO NOT include the JSA (the blue buildings) so you really need to look around and find one that does. I don’t think there are many. Have a great trip!!

    Hello this is so cool! May I ask you where you booked your tour ? And if its open to anyone ? Or military?

      It was through VIP Travel in Seoul. Right now I believe there are only a few tours available every month from what our guide told us. The tours are open to everyone. I thought VIP did a great job and seeing the JSA was a bucket list item for me.

      I linked the tour company in the description. The cost was about $150 US. Definitely higher than other DMZ-only tours but worth it to me.

      @@RuffmanTravels That’s what I paid. At first I thought that was high, as the typical DMZ tour is less than $100. But after taking the tour, I felt it was worth every penny to be able to see the JSA. Thanks for watching!

    Terrible tour guide. Not knowing/correcting himself. He and his commanding officer(s) should know better.
