[Special] The Physical Legacy of the Korean War at the Demilitarized Zone
 
The Demilitarized Zone serves as a buffer between the two Koreas and it also serves as a physical reminder of the Korean War. Ever since the two Koreas signed the Armistice Agreement in 1953, the DMZ has been left untouched and scientists say it¡¯s a sanctuary of biodiversity. In this episode of ¡°Insight¡±, we explore the natural environment of the DMZ.
[Interview] On the State of Korea¡¯s Defense Industry

What will weapons look like in the future? As the global weapons market becomes increasingly competitive, countries with major defense industries, including Korea, are scrambling to make better, faster, and more efficient weapons.

[Special] Searching for the Missing Remains of Korean War Servicemen
 
This year marks the 62nd anniversary of the outbreak of the Korean War. South Korea¡¯s defense ministry runs an excavation team that¡¯s dedicated to finding the remains of Korean War servicemen and their efforts seem to be paying off. So far, they have found 6,600 bodies, which have been interred in the National Cemetery. ¡°Insight¡± investigates the efforts to find the missing remains and meets the bereaved family members who are waiting to give their beloved a proper farewell.
[Special] Using DNA to Identify Missing Remains
 
More than 60 years have passed since the Korean War broke out but the remains of roughly 130,000 South Korean soldiers are still missing. In the absence of personal or medical records, the government has to rely on the DNA samples of living family members to accurately identify the recovered remains. Yet DNA identification can take up to a year and as the years pass, increasingly fewer immediate family members of the missing soldiers are able to provide DNA samples. ¡°Insight¡± highlights how the process works for the government and for bereaved families.
