Unification Bridge

The Bridge of No Return is a bridge located in the Joint Security Area (JSA) that crosses the Military Demarcation Line (MDL) between North Korea and South Korea. It was used for prisoner exchanges at the end of the Korean Armistice in 1953, with prisoners being given an ultimatum to either remain in captivity or cross the bridge to return home, but never be allowed to return. The bridge was last used for prisoner exchanges in 1968 and was abandoned after the Korean axe murder incident in 1976, when a new bridge was built by the North Koreans. The bridge is now considered to be in need of repair, with the US government offering to fix or replace it, but North Korea has denied permission.learn more on wikipedia
