Sŏnbong-guyŏk, formerly called Unggi, is a subdivision of the North Korean city of Rason. It is located at the northeastern extreme of North Korea, bordering Russia and China. It lies on Unggi Bay, an extension of the Sea of Japan. A uranium mine is allegedly located there, as is a 200 megawatt oil-fired power plant. The word Sonbong means "Vanguard" in Korean.
Reading Sŏnbong against the global hubs: Tokyo (~1,091 km), Singapore (~5,272 km), Dubai (~6,972 km) are the close ones, with São Paulo (~17,906 km) sitting on the opposite side of the planet — a good gut check when judging logistics windows.
Sŏnbong sits inside Noord-Korea — the Eastern Asia subregion, capital Pyongyang, languages Korean, currency KPW (₩).
The closest mapped neighbors of Sŏnbong are Unggi (3 km), Rajin (13 km), Aoji-ri (19 km), Ŭndŏk (19 km), so commuter, logistics and same-day-trip planning will usually pull from this cluster.
