	Covering North Korea: DMZ Visit
		Cheorwon, located about 50 miles northeast of Seoul along the Demilitarized Zone, is one of many towns altered by the Korean peninsula's changing borders.
		It is a rural town of about 50,000 where visitors can leave their car engines running, step away for an ice cream break on a sweltering summer day and find their car waiting when they return half an hour later.
		But as we approached the DMZ during a trip to Cheorwon in August, rolling along narrow rural roads outfitted with blockades hefty enough to prevent a tank invasion, the relaxed atmosphere disappeared.

		The plan today was to be up at Cheorwon by first light, in the hope of seeing flocks of White-naped and Red-crowned Cranes flying out of the DMZ where they roost to feed in the adjacent fields.
		We arrived at the car park at the bottom of the low hill, and walked through thin snow up a good path to the top of the hill, from where there is a good view over the adjacent fields, and into the DMZ.
		The undoubted highlight, however, was the single SIBERIAN ACCENTOR which Kingsley found on the opposite bank, and which proved to be the only one we saw on the whole trip.
