On 20th August, Korean Joongang Daily carried a “debriefing” on reports of private companies smuggling North Korean coal and iron into South Korea. The debriefing sets out to describe how North Korean coal and iron was illicitly brought into the South and how South Korean authorities – including the Korea Customs Service – are handling the case. It uses the 7 cases that the Korea Customs Service found during the 7-month period, May-October 2017.
