From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] North Korean Hangul / pronunciation
I feel that I should leave a message here why they are as written in the article. Here's how the phrase "from Paektu to Halla (mountains)" is written and pronounced:
- The "한라" part is written as 한나 in North Korea.
Proof: This page here writes out the aforementioned phrase. - It is however still pronounced as Halla.
Proof: Listen to the "Reunification Rainbow" song on this page. Fourth line in the song (not counting the squeaking at the beginning of the song) is the aforementioned phrase.
Additionally, I read that ㄴ + ㄴ is mostly pronounced nn but can be ll in Chinese loan words, but that's in a book... -- KittySaturn 14:29, July 16, 2005 (UTC)

Karoly.hidas 11:13, 7 June 2007 (UTC) Only one comment. "...Depending on the season, the circumference of the lake is up to 2 kilometres with a depth up to about 100 metres..." If I am not mistaking, this sentence refers to Baengnokdam which is the "Crater lake on Hallasan" (see first photo). It means that a 100 m deep lake with 4 km in diameter can be present at the very top of Hallasan. I can hardly believe that in any season this amount of water can be retained inside the crater. Please check the data, or make it clear. Thanks, karoly
