North Korea has vowed to clear South Korea relics from Kumgang resort and rebuild it in a modern way.

Inspecting tourist spot on east coast of North Korea, Kim Jong Un said North Korean tourism facilities must not be under control of South Korea.

It may be recalled that Kumgang is one of two the major inter-Korean economic projects, along with Kaesong industrial zone and an important token of cooperation between the two Koreas during decades of hostilities following the Korean War.
