JSA (Joint Security Area)
The Joint Security Area (JSA) is a designated zone within the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) that separates North and South Korea. It serves as a neutral meeting point for diplomatic talks, military negotiations, and inspections between the two nations. Located near Panmunjom, the JSA is uniquely accessible to both sides and is heavily guarded to prevent conflict. Its significance lies in acting as a symbol of diplomacy and cooperation amid ongoing tensions, providing a controlled environment for dialogue and reducing the risk of misunderstandings or escalation.
