> Abstract:
> Hamhung is the second-largest city in North Korea with a population of
> 769,000. It has shown a unique development trajectory starting from an
> important regional military and administrative town. Changes in the
> structure and function of Hamhung were wide-ranging prior to and during
> colonial rule (1910–1945). After independence and the division, the Korean
> War (1950–1953) broke out, leaving Hamhung in utter ruins. The immediate
> reaction after the Korean War was to reconstruct the city, which was
> carried out with aid from socialist fraternal countries, notably East
> Germany. Socialist urban development patterns followed.
