    Choosing The Right Location Page 1 of 4 Choosing The Right Location Geography The Korean Peninsula lies in the north-eastern part of the Asian continent. It is bordered to the north by Russia and China, to the east by the East Sea and Japan, and to the west by the Yellow Sea. In addition to the mainland, South Korea comprises around 3,200 islands. At 99,313 sq km, the country is slightly larger than Austria. It has one of the highest population densities in the world, after Bangladesh and Taiwan, with more than 50% of its population living in the country’s six largest cities. Korea has a history spanning 5,000 years and you will find evidence of its rich and varied heritage in the many temples, palaces and city gates. These sit alongside contemporary architecture that reflects the growing economic importance of South Korea as an industrialised nation. In 1948, Korea divided into North Korea and South Korea. North Korea was allied to the, then, USSR and South Korea to the USA. The divide between the two countries at Panmunjom is one of the world’s most heavily fortified frontiers.

    P o n t o n e PRESS RELEASE G A L L E R Y Kim Bumsu Sacred Cinema 12 April – 5 May 2019 Pontone Gallery is proud to present, for the first time in the UK, an exhibition by South Korean artist Kim Bumsu. Trained in his homeland and the United States, Kim’s work has been extensively shown in the Far East and Europe. This is an exclusive opportunity to experience his idiosyncratic and intriguing mixed- media constructions. The artist makes wall-mounted ‘light boxes’, fabricated from acrylic sheet, exposed film stock and LED lighting. Strips of old and discarded film are cut up and arranged to create large, complex collages, which are backlit by the Hidden Emotion V | 2016 | Movie Film, Acrylic, LED | 45 x 45 x 8 cm (17.5 x 17.5 x 3 in) LEDs within the boxes. Multi-coloured, pixellated patterns, reminiscent of mandalas and sacred geometries, create a glowing, kaleidoscopic effect. It is only on closer inspection that the nature of the source material is revealed. The viewer discovers a plethora of tiny and intriguing images, some recognisable, others less so. The cutting and pasting process, intrinsic to making the collages, corresponds with that of the film editor, who assembles fragments of information to make a coherent whole. Kim Bumsu’s compositions assimilate the disparate nature of their components and unite them into something new. The artist salvages and re-purposes that which is lost or unwanted. Kim explains this as an act of ‘romanticism’ that ‘arouses compassion’. Wishing to rescue what has been abandoned, his fractured re-making of lost narratives reminds us of the pre-digital, analogue age and its particularly tangible pleasures.
  • Fact Sheet African Swine Fever Outbreak (2019-2020)

    Fact Sheet African Swine Fever Outbreak (2019-2020)

    United Nations Command Camp Humphreys, Republic of Korea FACT SHEET AFRICAN SWINE FEVER OUTBREAK (2019-2020) May 5, 2020 Upon the detection of African Swine Fever in the Republic of Korea (ROK) in the fall of 2019, the ROK government initiated a containment and decontamination program requiring UNC support. At the government’s request, UNC suspended all non-operational tours to the Joint Security Area and limited access to other areas within the DMZ identified under the African Swine Fever (ASF) containment program. Additionally, UNC authorized and coordinated aerial decontamination operations in areas across the DMZ and expedited the installation of individual decontamination units to mitigate the spread of the disease. What is African Swine Fever? ASF is a virus that causes hemorrhagic fever with high mortality rates in domestic pigs. It persistently infects its natural hosts, including warthogs, bush pigs, wild boars, and ticks, all of which are vectors for the disease. ASF is endemic to Sub-Saharan Africa, but has spread across Europe and Asia, with major cases documented in Eastern European nations (e.g. Czech Republic), Russia, and China before reaching the Korean Peninsula. ASF does not cause disease in humans, but there are concerns about spreading the virus by personnel and vehicles transiting through infected areas. Background on 2019 Outbreak: Starting in mid-September 2019, the ROK government discovered ASF cases at a pig farm in Paju near the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ). There were also indications of ASF affecting livestock and wild boars in Yoncheon, Cheorwon, and the inside the DMZ. By October 31, 2019, there were 14 confirmed cases of ASF at local farms and 18 infected wild boars discovered.
