Comments

  • This station is located on the north-south Chollima line, which opened in 1973. Its name means "Comrades in Arms" and the decor centers on the struggle for liberation.
  • You are right for sure with what you have said about Chollima-Line. But the building here is the Sino-Korean Friendship-tower. The North-Koreans maybe mad as hell (don't know, never been there), but if you take a close-up you will see that this here is a column and not a metro-station. Anyway: Chonu station is a little further up north, maybe (but I am not sure about that) in the round building that is located in the south-eastern corner of the intersection of Kaeson-Street and Pipa-Street.
