The government of North Korea has developed special economic zones based on the China's opening policy and reform experience. Depending on the development of special economic zones, the North Korea is appearing to changes in land system. Partially, system of private ownership of land is being resurrected in North Korea. Especially, free economic trade zone designation and land lease legislation, and legal framework for the establishment of special economic zones influenced by the open-door policy in China, it should be noted that we are North Korea's policies. Point of view on the unification and integration of North and South Korea, it is very important that how will you set on the system of land ownership.
