Security Theater
North and South Korean soldiers face off at the 'Joint Security Area', Panmunjom, in the Korean DMZ. (It really is 'Security Theater', because I was told that the South Korean soldiers stand there only during the times when visitors are present.) (The horizontal strip of concrete (running between the two blue buildings) is the Military Demarcation Line (i.e. the border with North Korea).) (November 18th, 2016.

Inside the conference room in the 'Joint Security Area'
The Military Demarcation Line (i.e. the border with North Korea) runs down the middle of this table. So I'm technically a few feet inside North Korea here.
