01. PHILOSOPHY : What We Believe
“Individual peace becomes collective peace.”
In a forest where human footsteps were forbidden for 70 years,
we offer not a grand slogan, but a simple invitation: time to care for yourself.
A paradox—finding the most peaceful rest at one of the most dangerous borders.
We define this place not as a tourist attraction,
but as a Transformation Place that can change the way you live.
We believe that time spent in this forest can reshape your everyday life—
and that change, in turn, can make the world a little more peaceful.
02. CONCEPT : The Journey
“The most extraordinary journey to feel, experience, and take the DMZ with you.”
We designed the DMZ experience as a four-step Journey.
As you move through this flow, dulled senses awaken—and new inspiration emerges.
Meet the forbidden border (Meet the DMZ),
Taste the purest promise (Taste the DMZ),
Rest on life that persists even in wounded land (Rest in the DMZ),
And bring that inspiration back into your daily life (Take the DMZ Home).
03. PROGRAM : The Journey, Made Real
We translated these four steps into specific programs.
Every visit begins with [BASIC] DMZ Forest Basic,
and depending on your purpose and group size, you may add optional journeys.
[BASIC] Intro Journey: Meet the DMZ
With a self-guided kit provided,
you walk slowly through the forest inside the Civilian Control Zone (CCZ).
Passing between bunkers and barbed-wire fences,
you encounter the time of a forest that grew untouched for 70 years—
and taste the DMZ’s “pure promise” through our signature tea,
crafted from DMZ Forest plants and a recipe inspired by Dongui Bogam.
