North Korea Follows South Korea’s Lead by Ending DMZ Propaganda Broadcasts

It looks like things are going to be a little quieter along the DMZ:

North Korea stopped broadcasting propaganda along the inter-Korean border late Wednesday, hours after the South took the first step by silencing its own loudspeakers — a move aimed at easing tensions. South Korea halted its broadcasts along the 160-mile Demilitarized Zone at 2 p.m.

Wednesday, according to a statement from the presidential office the following day. By that evening, no North Korean broadcasts were heard along the border, South Korean army Col. Lee Sung-jun said during a news conference Thursday. The South’s loudspeakers have typically played K-pop music, news and other content intended to challenge Pyongyang’s ideological control. North Korea’s broadcasts, in contrast, feature political monologues condemning South Korean society and democratic governance.
