The Korean War was a great tragedy in Korean History. It has been 60 years since the conflict began and Korea remains a divided country, and the international community continues to confront the crisis. Strangely, most South
Koreans go about their lives seeming oblivious to this conflict. Through my project, the Pale City, I address the current state of affairs in Korean politics, my personal feelings and thoughts about the Korean culture, as well as Western stereotypes of North Korean society.
