This is the sorrow state of ‘North Korea’s Benidorm’ that was supposed to be a game changer for tourism.
Tourists were expected to flock to the beach resort for the summer, but according to locals, it is now filled with poo and overtaken by the homeless. A source in the Kangwon Province, of which Wonsan is a part, added: ‘Buildings without doors have become gathering points for kkotjebi, and now they are full of human waste and soot from fires.‘Labour and money will be wasted on a project when nobody knows when it will open or if tourists will actually come.’It is believed the resort got its western name after Kim Jong Un reportedly sent a fact-finding mission to Spain’s Costa Blanca in 2017.
