In his second and final week in North Korea, Michael visits the Korean Demilitarized Zone (which he previously visited in Japan/Korea (1997) from the South Korean side), the ancient Korean capital of Kaesong, the ghostly international airport in the newly built beachside resort town of Wonsan, and the Revolutionary Museum on Mount Paektu.
