South Korea began dismantling loudspeakers used for anti-North Korea broadcasts today along the inter-Korean border as announced by Seoul’s Defence Ministry. This move comes after broadcasts were halted in June shortly after President Lee Jae-myung assumed office. His administration aims to revive stalled talks with Pyongyang and restore trust.
The ministry described the dismantling as a practical step toward reducing tensions and emphasized it would not compromise military readiness. The loudspeakers had been reactivated in June 2024 under former President Yoon Suk-yeol. President Lee’s government has prioritized peaceful engagement and believes trust is key to long-term stability. According to the ministry, the broadcasts officially ended on June 11 in an effort to improve inter-Korean relations.
