Surrounded by military officials, Kim Jong-un spreads a large map on his desk and points at something.
Although it has been blurred, there is also a phrase that looks like 'Seoul' on the top of the map.
He visited the command of the North Korean military's 2nd Corps, which is in charge of Kaesong and the Midwest Front, where Kim made a flurry of threatening remarks against the South.

It has repeatedly defined Korea as an enemy country and another country, and in particular, Chairman Kim threatened to use physical force without hesitation, regardless of conditions, if Korea violates its sovereignty.
He claimed that the recent bombing of the inter-Korean land route cut off the bad relationship with Seoul and wiped out not only the sense of fraternity but also the unrealistic perception of unification.
Analysts say that he made such remarks on the day he disclosed the circumstances in which South Korea was designated as a hostile country in the Constitution, but he put pressure on the South by wrapping it as a legitimate act against the enemy.

In a statement by Vice Minister Kim Yo-jong, North Korea admitted to using the video of the inter-Korean road bombing provided by the South Korean military to foreign media, but also criticized South Korean media for using North Korean media photos and videos.

In the meantime, the Army said it conducted a night-time live-fire drill using multiple rocket launchers toward the East Sea target area with the determination to immediately punish the enemy in the event of an enemy provocation in Goseong, Gangwon-do.
Over the next three weeks, the South Korean military will conduct the "2024 National Training," an annual outdoor training exercise that has increased its participation compared to last year with the participation of the U.S. Forces in Korea.
