Onsong County MPS Detention Centre

3D Model

Onsong County MPS Detention Centre is located in North Hamgyong Province. Less than a mile from the border with China, the detention centre is situated in the north of Onsong and is bordered by agricultural fields and the Tumen River.

The penal facility is managed by the Ministry of People’s Security (North Korea’s general police force) at the county level and is staffed by MPS state agents and correctional officers. The detention centre covers approximately 560 square metres. To date, Korea Future has identified 23 individual perpetrators at this facility. Of these, 21 perpetrators have been named or partially named.

Korea Future used digital modelling, survivor testimony, memory-based diagrams, and satellite imagery to recreate the internal architecture of Onsong County MPS Detention Centre. We were supported by Orion Intel.
