• South Korean army soldiers patrol along a barbed-wire fence at the Imjingak Pavilion near the border village of Panmunjom, which has separated the two Koreas since the Korean War. Relations between the two countries, always tense, took another hit Friday when North Korea announced it was canceling its nonaggression pact with South Korea in response to the U.N.'s decision to impose new sanctions on Pyongyang. It's been a busy, hostile week for Kim Jong Un, who also threatened to turn Washington D.C. into a "sea of fire."
