Bottled Water From Demilitarized Zone

SOUTH Korea's newest bottled water comes from a place where the nature has been unspoiled for decades due to razor-wire fences, land-mined fields and more than 1 million heavily armed soldiers standing guard.

Its name is "DMZ 2km" and is bottled near the no-man's-land Demilitarized Zone that has divided the Korean peninsula since the end of the 1950-53 Korean War.

"We decided on water from the DMZ because it's different, and the environment there is untouched, so many people thinks it's clean," said Lee Sang-hyo, a spokesman for Lotte Chilsung Beverage Co, which started selling the water three months ago.
