Unification park consists of two areas, the main attraction being a seafront display of a Warship and North Korean submarine. You can enter both vessels for a fascinating insight into the confined spaces that both North and South Koreans lived in. (Lonely Planet)

Captured North Korean Submarine
A look into the grounded and captured North Korean Submarine at Gangneung Unification Park in Gangneung City, South Korea. The sub and it's crew were on a spying mission of the South Korean defenses in 1996, when it crashed on the rocky shore in rough seas. The crew set fire to the sub to destroy evidence, then fled ashore to fight a guerrilla battle with the South Korean Army. The battle lasted forty-nine days, during which one of the North Korean submariners was captured, and the rest were killed. Eleven South Korean soldiers were killed in the battle, and twenty-two were injured. Six South Korean civilians were killed. The South Korean Navy salvaged the sub, and it is now on display. For more information on our visit to the sub, go to: thetaoofohare.blogspot.com/2010/05/gangneung-unification-park-and-new.html.
North Korean Submarine/War Ship (통일 공원) | Sun Cruise on a Cliff (썬크루즈) in Jeongdongjin (정동진)
This vlog shows you the cool North Korean Submarine!!! It’s a 35m-long submarine that was used to spy on the military in Gangneung (the city I live in). However trouble struck as it ran aground in 1996. What happened was, the group split and were seen by a civilian! 25 were killed and 1 is missing! Sadly during this, 4 civilians lost their lives! The manhunt lasted 49 days and a total of 18 South Koreans were injured or killed in the process.
The warship was built in America in 1945, and was used in WWII and the Vietnam War, and was donated to South Korea in 1972. It’s kinda cool to see inside one!
The Sun Cruise was built on top of a cliff to represent a real cruise ship. They have a lot of facilities inside, from swimming pools to golf!! How cool! Anyways, I hope you enjoyed the video ^_^!!!
