North & South Korea: The Most Militarized Border on Earth | Divided by Lines

In July 1953, the guns of the Korean War fell silent — but the war itself never truly ended. The armistice that halted the fighting carved a temporary military line across the Korean Peninsula. Seven decades later, that line has hardened into the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) — the most militarized border on Earth. Stretching 250 kilometers from coast to coast, the DMZ is not simply a buffer between North and South Korea. It is a frozen frontline where surveillance, artillery, underground tunnels, and nuclear strategy coexist with silence and rigid control. A boundary created by exhaustion has become a permanent division shaping geopolitics, military doctrine, and human lives. In this video, we'll trace how the Korean Peninsula came to be defined by a single line — from Japanese colonial rule and the rushed division of 1945, to the Korean War and the armistice that institutionalized separation. We'll explores how two incompatible systems emerged on either side of the DMZ, and how that border continues to influence global security today. Beyond the military architecture, this is also a human story. Families separated for generations. Defectors navigating unfamiliar worlds. Two Korean identities shaped by seventy years of isolation, ideology, and readiness for war. North & South Korea: The Most Militarized Border on Earth is part of Divided by Lines — a series examining how borders are drawn, why they harden, and how they reshape nations long after the fighting stops.
