SEOUL: For anyone curious about civilian life in North Korea, Starbucks is offering its customers in the south a peek into the world’s most reclusive country while sipping a favourite brew. The county in the north mainly consists of homes and some farms, though as a border region may also have a military presence. The riverbank in North Korea is more than a mile away from the Starbucks outlet, which means visitors may need binoculars or long-range lenses to see what’s going on in the neighbouring country.
The 30-seater cafe opens Friday at the observatory tower of the Aegibong Peace Ecopark, giving coffee drinkers a panoramic view of Jogang river which separates the two nations, the invite said. It’s part of the city’s plans to turn Aegibong into a global tourist attraction, by leveraging on its historic and strategic importance during the Korean War. Some 135,514 people have visited the park in the first 10 months of this year, up 24% from the year ago period.
